Diamond Size Chart

Round Diamonds

This round diamond size chart or diamond weight chart lists ideal or near ideal sizes and carat weights. This means that if a diamond has an ideal cut it will have very specific dimensions which lend themselves towards this type of measurement. This is a jewelry industry standard, specifically for natural diamonds. If a diamond has a cut which is further from ideal then the dimensions will be off, however, using this tool will still provide a rough estimation of size to carat weight.
