The 1-carat diamond pricing is often subjective because it’s all about feelings with diamonds. This peculiarity of “feelings” within the diamond business is the sole reason many poor-cut diamonds are on the market.

Here’s are the things you should know about 1-carat diamond:

  • A 1-carat diamond would cost between $1,800 and $12,000. The price depends on the Cut quality, Clarity, Color, and Shape of the diamond or the known 4C’s.
  • A 1 Carat Diamond price tag comes down to more factors that determine the diamond’s beauty.
  • The size is a tremendous driver of diamond price, and although Carat is not explicitly a dimension of size, it is connected.
  • Carat simply refers to the weight of the diamond. 1 carat equals 200 milligrams or 0.2 grams. A 1 Carat Diamond weighs roughly the same as a quarter of a raisin to place it in viewpoint. All diamonds are priced per Carat. For example, a 1/2 carat diamond may have a price of $1,400 per Carat. The diamond’s price for the stone would be $1,400 x 0.50, equaling $700.
  • The diamond prices per Carat boost as you achieve more elevated weight’ classes.’ Diamond prices grow exponentially with significance because of the diamond’s higher significance value and the more increased cost per Carat for the increased weight category. For example, a 1 Carat Diamond might be priced at $4,615 or t be at $7,390.
  • The prices per 1-carat diamond do not continually increase as weight increases. The 1-carat diamonds are retail products compelled more by emotion than reasoning. Although it may seem promising to look for a diamond that’s just below a new weight class—such as a 0.90-0.99 Carat Diamond—that frankly isn’t the issue.
  • The search for an “almost” 1 Carat Diamond has become incredibly popular. This popularity elevates those particular diamonds’ prices, making the cost savings minimal.
  • Limiting your search potential without really saving anything. Ultimately, you can search for a 0.90ct+ diamond, but we suggest not trying to find one specifically.

Nissan, David and his team were extremely accommodating, understanding and patient with our purchase. They took the upmost care to find the best solution for our needs and went above and beyond normal ‘customer service’ standards. I have absolutely no qualms recommending their products and services. Both were absolutely flawless. I will continue to sing them praises and will most definitely purchase from them again in the future. Thank you again!

Bought a beautiful stone here for an engagement ring. I was a little apprehensive since you’re buying something unseen. But Cid made it easy. In fact, Nissan, the owner also gave a call to make me more comfortable. They sent me the stone to take to a local jeweler with only my Amex in case I bailed on them.
