A
2 carat diamond rings aren’t cheap; therefore you need to be very careful with the selection process. Also, keep in mind that “carat” describes the diamond itself, and that “karat” describes the gold’s purity. It can be somewhat hard to equate carat weight with the actual size of the diamond. This means that a
2 carat diamond ring isn’t necessarily twice the size of a
1 carat diamond ring. Although one carat equals 200 milligrams of weight, a diamond’s precise weight isn’t always easy to measure. Some jewelers take advantage of this fact and try to exaggerate the weight of a diamond. For this reason, you should only order a
2 carat diamond ring that comes with certification from one of the top grading labs, such as
GIA, AGS, or
EGL, as do King of Jewelry’s diamond rings.
The carat isn’t the only thing you should consider when searching for the perfect
diamond ring. While it’s certainly important, it’s not the only thing that makes the ring. The three other C’s include clarity, color, and cut. A colorless diamond with little to no flaws and a flawless cut is what you should look for when shopping for a
2 carat diamond ring. If you are buying for somebody who likes a lot of razzle-dazzle, then expect to pay in the five figure range. Even if you choose a simple cut rather than brilliant, you still need to consider the setting. A
2 carat diamond ring needs at least an 18K gold or platinum setting to provide a lot of dazzle. The most popular cuts are heart shaped, round brilliant, and princess. If you’re buying for a classy lady who prefers wearing vintage jewelry, an Asscher or emerald cut will be a great choice. Whatever type of 2 carat diamond ring you choose, you will love the price and beauty of your King of Jewelry purchase.
