Very informative. I always noticed that the marquise, pear & oval have the largest surface so appear bigger. My favourite shaped diamond is the marquise.
Yes, elongated shapes and often cut to be less deep, so face up larger. Marquise is a beautiful choice
by far the most informative video about diamond size and carat
Glad you found it useful!

I got deal on my 05 carat round E VS2 with ideal cut for 760 usd with igi certification stone by itself
Sounds like a an incredible deal - congrats!
Lots of information that I’d not found anywhere else, thanks. I’ll be ring hunting like a pro now! Linked website good too.
I know I'm kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good website to watch newly released series online ?
@Chad Solomon i use flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
@Gerald Beckham definitely, have been using Flixzone for since march myself :D
@Gerald Beckham Thanks, signed up and it seems to work :) Appreciate it !
@Chad Solomon you are welcome :D
I can account to this, I have just bought a 1.4crt diamond with a large table, so face up it appears larger, the cut is very good and clarity is Si1 and is a H colour and its a gia cert and I got it for a bargain price. Definitely shop around.
Sounds like you got a great stone - congrats!
@@ringspo6194 brilliant cut too! I was going for a cushion cut but this was such a deal, now I have to get it mounted into my diamond and platinum setting. It's hard to find a good jeweler. It's to replace a lost engagement ring
@@MrsMBrandDesign Yep it can be tricky.. If you're searching online, try searching for 'reset diamond' then your town or city name, rather than just 'jewelers' - this is more likely to bring up specialists, rather than generalists
@@ringspo6194 that's great advice, thank you. Good luck with your channel.
Hi please help! i am wondering my sister just got 3.60gr diamond ring, i google it, it says around 18karat/ carat? And price around $4.000 australian dollar and i went to jewelry shop yesterday and i like one of the ring, cost $4.500 aus dollar, but it says 0.95 Carat TW Of Diamonds In 14kt White Gold, not even 18ct, so i mean why are they different? Means 0.95 is not good ? But why more expensive than 3.60gr ? Thank you.
👍
Hi,bro what does 0.135 mean on a diamond?
Do you sell hearts and arrows cut Moissanite ?
Wow, super entertaining way to learn about diamond buying, love the Arnie analogy, makes total sense! Thanks for your helpful advice, will check out Ringspo
Do you always have to go for a bigger carat weight to get the best value? I don't like big rings. I always thought I'd want a smaller 0.8 carat in a halo setting with higher quality cut, colour, and clarity (Ideal, F, VVS2 as an example)..as opposed to a 1.25 carat with lower quality (Good, H, SI) as an example. I know there's no right or wrong but what would your thoughts be for people who wanted smaller rings but still want the sparkle of larger rings?
Hi Peggy, it really is down to your own preference - there's no right or wrong answer. The one area that I would always recommend prioritising is cut grade, as it's the key factor in determining a diamond's sparkle.. A good starting point is Excellent or ideal cut, H color and eye clean VS2 clarity - this is a good balance of quality factors without overpaying for things that don't make a visible difference to how the stone looks.
Hi, bro what does 0.135 mean in carats on a diamond? Does it mean its the same as 1.35 carats?
noo
Smaller diamonds that weigh less than 1-carat are often expressed in terms of points instead of carats. There are 100 points in a carat. Another way to look at it is to say that each point equals 0.01, or one-hundredth, of a carat.
0.05 means five one-hundredths, so a 0.05-carat diamond equals five points.
0.25 means twenty-five one-hundredths, so a 0.25-carat diamond equals twenty-five points or one-quarter of a carat.
Hallo, what about the Cut in 4Cs?
What in certification Cut: Antwerp Belgium means? Is it a good cut?
Hi, 'Cut' is the most important factor in determining how much a diamond will sparkle, so it's very important indeed.
'Antwerp Belgium' is the centre of the European diamond trade, but doesn't relate to the cut quality. I'm happy to share more info if you can provide more information
@@ringspo6194 thank you for your answer. This means it s not a trusted certification and to choose different jewelry shop?
@@user-ot2rd7wr5z That would be my recommendation yes - I'd look for a GIA graded diamond if possible. HRD is based out of Antwerp and is acceptable, but it seems like the retailer is confusing diamond cut grades with the actual grading laboratory.. 'Cut' should be given as Excellent, Ideal, Very Good, Good etc, and of those I would recommend that you choose Excellent or Ideal
OK so next time ask "How much is the diameter on that??😂. We all know this. Just describing size using carats sounds sexier😂😂
