Carat Weight
Three-carat diamonds are larger than the average engagement ring diamond. These generously sized diamonds are sure to make a statement, whether you're creating your own piece of custom jewelry or finding the perfect gem to impress your significant other. The diamond's size will be noticeable, making any piece of jewelry stand out. In addition to engagement rings, 3-carat diamonds can be used as the centerpiece of a beautiful diamond pendant or diamond earrings.
Earth-Grown Diamonds
Earth-grown diamonds are mined deep under the earth's surface, where they have been dormant for millions of years. When you hold an earth grown diamond, reflect on the immense journey this diamond has taken and the history it has endured.
A diamond starts out in the lowly form of graphite, similar to what you might find in the tip of your pencil. Over the course of hundreds of millions of years, the immense pressure and temperature produced deep inside the earth rearrange the carbon atoms into a crystal structure.
Then, miners dig deep tunnels under the earth and collect the rough diamonds. The rough diamond looks nothing like the sparkly diamond you are holding. It has an irregular shape, is very dirty and looks dull. The diamond is then cleaned, cut into it's 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.
