Does Diamond Size Really Matter? Small diamond or big diamond? If this is the question on your mind while you are pondering over the design of your engagement ring, you are one of those who think that the size of a diamond is a big issue. But, does diamond size really matter? Let’s talk about it. As a general person looking at an engagement ring, we will say that the size of a diamond definitely matters. People will look at your ring and say “Oh! Why such a petite diamond? Mine was a bigger one!”. Such statements hurt, the fear of which is what makes people believe that they have to opt for a bigger diamond in their ring, whether they like it or not, whether they can afford it or not. But, this shouldn’t be the case! You must choose a diamond that you like, the one that thrills you. You must choose a diamond that looks good on your finger. You must choose a diamond that goes well with the design of the rest of your ring. You must choose a diamond that fits within your budget. Simply choosing a diamond that is big in size, without considering its cut, colour, carat, and clarity is not a wise decision. All the 4C’s of a diamond must be taken into consideration before making a choice. You can take assistance from diamond professionals to understand what kind of cut, colour, clarity, and carat you should be choosing.

And, if you don’t want to walk in just yet, you can take help from this guide below to understand what these 4C’s are, in order to help you take a better decision.
Cut Diamond cut refers to the diamond’s angles, proportions, symmetrical facets, and finishing. These factors determine the diamond’s sparkle and overall aesthetic appeal.Thus, a diamond’s cut is the biggest indicator of its beauty, and should be given priority, because no matter how big a diamond you buy, unless it has the right cut, it won't sparkle; and if it doesn’t sparkle, it won't thrill anyone. Colour Diamond colour refers to the colour and tint of a diamond. Diamonds are graded from D to Z, with D being colourless, and Z containing a brown or yellow tint. These grades significantly vary the price of the diamond. While the choice of colour is completely yours, you must choose one that combines both colour and shine. Clarity Diamond clarity determines how clean a diamond is from inclusions and blemishes. Any kind of inclusions and blemishes can interfere with light as it passes through the diamond, thus altering the shine and sparkle. More the blemishes, duller the diamond. Carat Diamond carat is the weight of the diamond. 1 carat equals to 200 milligrams, weighing almost that of a quarter of a raisin. However, two diamonds of the same carat may be different in size, depending upon its shape and cut. Thus, you can't associate the weight of a diamond to its size. Each of the 4C’s of a diamond contributes in their own ways to the overall beauty of a diamond to make each stone unique. Thus, all the 4C’s must be taken into account before choosing a diamond. It’s definitely okay to want a diamond that is a little bigger in size, but don’t forget to consider all the 4C’stoo. And, if you don’t have a budget big enough, it’s absolutely fine to go with a small diamond. Worry more about your budget, and less about what others say!
