The 4Cs: Carat Weight

A diamond's size is measured in carat weight and each carat is equal to 100 points. 
 
A .75 carat diamond is the same as a 75-point diamond or a .574 carat stone. While larger diamonds are highly prized, diamonds of equal size may vary widely in value and brilliance, depending on their qualities of clarity, cut and color.
