A 1 carat diamond ring is a beautiful jewellery item. Especially popular for engagements, 1 carat diamond rings are easily customisable to suit individual preferences.
The four elements to consider when purchasing a diamond are its cut (the diamond’s reflective properties), clarity (presence of blemishes or inclusions on the diamond), color (the presence or absence of color), and carat. The term carat refers to the weight of the diamond. Typical carat sizes range from ¼ carat to 2 carats. One carat equals about 200 milligrams. There is no carved-in-stone rule when it comes to determining what size of diamond to purchase, but the 1 carat diamond ring is a popular and timeless choice.
Keep in mind that a 1 carat diamond ring does not necessarily have to be from one stone. Total carat weight is used to describe a ring of multiple diamonds. This is a good option for some people, as the diamond configuration can resemble many intricate or even simple designs. However, some people do prefer the single solitary diamond.
Popular 1 carat engagement diamond ring styles for solitaire diamonds include:
• Traditional styles: round, oval or marquise diamonds, with a traditional tiffany setting.
• Unique styles: princess cut or heart-shaped with a flush mounted setting.
• Bridal Set Engagement Rings: a solitaire paired with a plain or diamond accented band.
Popular styles for 1 carat engagement diamond rings of multi-stone settings include:
• Bridal Set Engagement Rings: multiple stones accenting a smaller center stone.
• Three stone engagement ring: three similarly-sized diamonds instead of a single focal point.
• Accented rings: small accents to add to the beauty.
