0.7 Carat Diamonds
0.70 carat diamonds are in the range considered to be three quarter carat diamonds (between 0.70ct and 0.79ct), and are described as “seventy pointers” (percentages of a carat). They are often talked about in the diamond trade as “three grainers” as the term “grain” refers to the weight equivalent to a quarter of a carat (1 carat = 4 grains). They represent one of the most desirable diamond sizes, more substantial looking than half carat, but far less costly than one carat diamonds. Shoppers interested in quality often opt for 0.70ct diamonds rather than trying to make the budget stretch to an inferior one carat diamond.
