What actually drives the price

50–65 %

Carat weight and stone origin

By far the biggest factor. Going from 1 ct to 2 ct can double the price of a natural diamond, while a lab-grown diamond absorbs that jump far more gently.

15–25 %

Visible cut and clarity

An excellent cut is worth every dollar: it creates the fire. Paying for clarity invisible to the naked eye (VVS and above) is rarely worth it.

15–20 %

The setting and the metal

14k or 18k gold, platinum, pavé, halo, openwork basket: the setting affects price, but far less than people assume.

0 %

The showroom premium

A mall jeweller funds rent, inventory and floor staff. Working directly with an atelier, the same certified diamond typically costs 20 to 30% less.
