1.5-Carat Weight
Discover a wonderful balance of diamond size and best-value prices in this collection from Ritani. Slightly larger than the average engagement ring diamond size, 1.5-carat diamonds are an excellent value option for those who want to upgrade from the more commonplace 1-carat size engagement ring diamond. This carat size will appear noticeably larger than a full carat, adding a little extra sparkle to any piece of jewelry. A 1.5-carat diamond is quite impressive without appearing too extravagant, allowing you to obtain a stunning engagement ring that fits within a reasonable budget. These diamonds also make a great size to add to a pendant or earrings.
All Ritani diamonds come with a free appraisal and a grading certificate from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or American Gem Society (AGS), the world's most respected independent grading labs.
Earth-Grown 1.5-Carat Diamonds
Earth-grown diamonds are mined from deep under the earth's surface where they have lain dormant for millions of years. Because earth-grown diamonds take hundreds of millions of years to form, each one represents an immense journey that has been taken and an incredible history that has been endured.
A naturally formed diamond starts out in its earliest form as simple graphite, such as you might find in the tip of your pencil. Over the course of many, many millennia, the immense pressure and temperature produced deep inside the earth rearrange the carbon atoms. This creates the crystal structure of the diamond.
Miners then dig deep tunnels under the earth to collect the rough diamonds, which look nothing like the sparkly diamonds used in today's fine jewelry. These diamonds feature irregular shapes and are very dirty and dull, lacking the glamorous shine of a faceted gem. The diamond is then cleaned, cut into its desired shape, and finally polished into the beautiful diamond you are now holding!
All Ritani earth-grown diamonds are certified by either the AGS or GIA – the two most respected independent grading labs in the world.
