#diamond points

Points of stones between .9 5.99 very substantially between cutters and at the marketplace. Supply and demand is the most important determining factor. A stone of.99 99 nine five. And a.99 diamonds will sell for 10 to 20% less than a stone of the same quality way exactly one carat.

But carat weight is still only a relative importance. The internal and external characteristics of the diamond Color the degree of whiteness or color looseness clarity the degree of lawlessness cut the degree to which the time and conforms to excepted proportion standards make all the difference. Two similar looking 1 carat diamond have exactly the same way he can vary buy as much because $40,000 dollars per carat by virtue of slightly different quality features. For any given size the other three main factors break down this way. Color is by far the most important determinant making up about 50% of the average stones value. Clarity and cut are about equally important making up 25% each of the remaining value. This 50 2525 breakdown might seem to leave no room for the weight factor.

Let's say you're trying to choose between a 1 carat stone and 2 carat stone and they both have the same price tag. On the other hand one might expect 2 ^ flawless white diamond to be double the value of a one carat diamond of comparable quality but in fact the value would be more than doubled. This is because the larger stones of any grade are rarer.
