3 Carat Diamond Rings

A 3 carat round brilliant measures about 9.3 mm across and weighs 0.6 gram. An oval, pear or emerald cut of the same weight is longer and can span most of the width of the finger.

A 3 carat lab grown diamond ring costs a fraction of a mined diamond ring of the same weight and grade, which is why this size has become attainable. The exact price depends on shape, gold purity (14kt or 18kt) and setting, and is recalculated daily against the prevailing gold rate, so the product page always shows the current figure.

It is a statement size and is chosen for exactly that reason. It works best on a band wide enough to balance it and in a secure setting. Many buyers wear a 3 carat ring for occasions and a smaller ring day to day; others wear it daily in a bezel or low-profile setting.

At 3 carat, inclusions and colour tint are visible more easily than in smaller stones, so grades matter most at this size. VS clarity or higher is a sensible floor, and a higher colour grade keeps the stone bright in white gold. Both are stated on the IGI or SGL certificate.

Six claws, double claws or a bezel. A heavier stone puts more leverage on its claws, so they should be substantial. 14kt gold is harder than 18kt and holds claws slightly better; 18kt gives a richer colour. Have the claws checked at a showroom from time to time.
