Diamond weight is measured in carats. One carat is equal to 200 milligrams. When diamond weights less than a carat, a point unit is used. One point is equal to one one-hundredth of a carat (0.01 carat or 2 mg).
One commom misconception is that diamond weight is the same thing as diamond size. In fact, two diamonds with the same carat can slightly vary in size. This is because one diamond may be more dense than another diamond.
The price of the diamond increases exponentially as the size of the diamond increases. This is due to the fact that the larger the diamonds are harder to find in nature and therefore are more in demand.
