Hey everyone, I wanted to share this clip of both a 1 carat and 2 carat lab diamond side by side. This is a great way to see just how much bigger a 2 carat diamond is over a 1 carat on a size six finger.

Comparing the two diamonds there really is no right answer on which one is "better." It's really up to you and what size diamond you prefer. When I observe the diamonds I can't help being struck by the size and beauty of the 2 carat diamond, but I also appreciate the smaller 1 carat diamond as it looks more natural on my wife's finger.

Let me know what you guys think in the comments below. I would love to hear your opinion.

Thanks for watching.

I Think I like 1.5 the most! Perfect in between size

Thank you for this video. I was on the James Allen website and wanted to see the carat comparison. Very beautiful rings.

I have a 2.22 in size 5.25, it's not that big in person. Maybe because I stare at it way too much 😅 It does appear big in camera especially if the cut is excellent lol

[mangalisosereo]

Thank you very much! You helped me a lot

[fdurango]

That is not a 2 ct. that’s huge in the hand

Lab diamond to me is a generic diamond and for 7500 is super expensive. Natural diamond is real.

[kidsmes]

What did your fiancé prefer?! That’s what I want to know.

Either you are mistaken about her finger size, the carat weight of these stones, or they (particularly the “2ct”) are poorly cut/shallow. I would be interested to know the measurements of these stones in mm.

I am looking to get Point and Etched Tension set engagement ring, what kind of diamond do you recommend? Thanks for all your videos

[districtnerfco.]

Y’all can get a 2ct for $3k at Rare Carat, I’m jus sayin 🤷🏽‍♀️

[artsyhyd]

I would go with the natural diamond 1 ct, eventho I prefer 2 ct more, I would def go with the natural diamond.

[antualove]

My fingers is small is better 1.5 ring and finger is size 7

[raivilafreedom]

No way her finger is a size 6, seems thicker.

[FoxxTrill]

They bussed your head for the price because you can get a 2ct lab diamond for $1600 hundred

[pamotorsports]

That 2.16 lab is now is about 2100. Prices tanked

[sarawix]

Lab loose value as soon as u leave ahopn

[jinglejangle]

Lab diamonds should'nt exist. It kills the magic.

[jackjones]

Sizes definitely look exaggerated or these diamonds are not real. A 1ct should only be 6.4mm across. That thing is huge.
