Carat range

[Palenta]

Hello! I’ve been doing some research on diamonds and I’m interested in the 1.6-carat range. I know that the carat weight plays a huge role in the size and price, but I’m wondering if the jump from 1.5 carats to 1.6 carats is noticeable. Does a 1.6-carat diamond look much larger than a 1.5-carat one? Is it worth spending a little more for that extra 0.1 carat, or is the difference too small to matter?

That’s a great question! Honestly, the difference between a 1.5-carat and a 1.6-carat diamond is quite minimal in terms of visual size—though the weight is slightly larger, it might not be as noticeable to the untrained eye. However, this small increase can make a difference in price, so it’s important to consider whether that small size difference is worth the extra cost for you. If you want to dive deeper into how carat weight affects a diamond’s look and price, I’d recommend reading this guide. It breaks down the details https://labrilliante.com/education/d...grown-diamonds of the 1.6-carat diamond, and it also touches on lab-grown diamonds, which can be a great choice if you're looking for a larger carat at a more affordable price.

That’s really helpful information! I didn’t realize that the jump from 1.5 to 1.6 carats would be so subtle in terms of appearance. Lab-grown diamonds sound like a fantastic option, especially if you want to get more carat weight for your money. I’ll definitely check out the guide for more details!
