Learn About Your Diamond

You’ve selected a 1.00 carat Round lab diamond. 0% of our users choose round diamonds. Learn more about them here.

Cut is the most important factor. When an experienced gemologist picks up a diamond grading report, their eyes go to very specific values. They are looking to see if these fall within the desired ranges. Seemingly unimportant values like the depth percentage have a large effect on how your diamond will sparkle - and these values differ for each shape.

Follow the checklist prepared by our gemologists to see how your diamond fares. If it misses by a little bit on one or two, that’s fine, but we recommend trying to find a stone that passes on all:

Your 1.00 carat Round lab diamond is graded E color (Colorless), and you can read more about E color diamonds here.

Color is graded beginning with D (Colorless). Learn more about diamond color here. The market prices colorless diamonds higher as they are rarer, but some people prefer warmer colored stones.

Our gemologists check for following color issues before recommending a diamond:

Your 1.00 carat Round lab diamond is graded VS1 clarity, which stands for Very Slightly Included 1. Read more about VS1 clarity diamonds here, or learn more about diamond clarity in general here.

There are minimum clarities our gemologists prefer for each shape, but beyond that clarity is a matter of budget and preference. People typically aim for an eye clean stone. Also, our gemologists have certain deal-breakers when it comes to clarity. For example, our gemologists always avoid stones with a cavity, because with one wrong hit your diamond can crack.

Use the checklist below to ensure your diamond passes. Consult us before purchasing to see if any other nuanced issues are present:

A diamond's carat weight is determined by its size, with larger diamonds weighing more. Learn more about carat here.
However, it's important to note that carat weight is not the same as size, as other factors such as depth and shape can also impact how large a diamond appears.

I did pretty good with this company. The rings are very nice. I think you or anyone else should make your own choice. You might do better but you can do worse. I am very critical of most things that cost me money. You can trust this review. They have treated me with respect.

The wife loved it, it was perfect and prettier in person. couldn’t have been happier. i think the engraving of our date might of been a little faint but it is platinum and feels like it’s harder to see then if it was on gold, it’s also not that big of a deal.

I had an order with Rare Carat for a ring, but unfortunately, I ordered the wrong one. The proposal was for Sunday, but the date was already very close. I placed the order, and they handled it, but I realized I had chosen the wrong stone. They paused the order, and the original stone wasn’t available. Thankfully, they found a similar stone, kept me updated, and communicated throughout. The delivery time I needed was by Sunday, but on Friday at 5 p.m., they shipped it. I received it on Saturday at 9 a.m., and my proposal was the next day, on Sunday. I was really impressed by their warmth, effort, and execution—they went above and beyond, and I was able to propose right on time! Shane Gia helped me !

I Am WAY MORE than satisfies with my ring!!!!! My fiancé proposed with a small band so that I could choose the ring I wanted. It was a very easy process, Great selection and I was able to build the ring exactly how I wanted it. Delivery was faster than expected and the ring is Beautiful!! It came in a nice ring box with all of the necessary paperwork of appraisal needed for insurance purposes. (This is a 1.08ct Round Cut E VVS2 Diamond set in a 14ct Yellow Gold Ramona 8 pronged Solitaire).

Rare Carat makes the diamond-buying process incredibly easy. The website is intuitive, and the prices are much more competitive than traditional jewelers. When my order arrived, the quality of the diamond and the setting actually exceeded my expectations—it’s absolutely stunning. The customer service was professional and highly responsive, providing a personalized touch that made the whole experience feel secure. While I’ve heard of one-off issues with loose stones, my piece arrived in perfect condition. If you’re looking for a beautiful ring and a smooth experience, I highly recommend them!
