The weight of the diamond


The weight of the diamond

This is the simplest criterion.
The unit of weight of diamonds is the carat, equivalent to 0.20 grams. Below a carat, is called hundredths.

A diamond weighing 0.25 labeled 25 / 100 (as we say 25 points). The word "carat" comes from the carob seed, once used to weigh
the stones.

The weight of the stone determines its size, so its diameter.

Some examples of the size of diamonds of different weights.
