Gemstone Sizes & Weight
Carat: A carat, as a unit of weight, originally comes from the Arabic qirat which was roughly the weight of 4 grains and was traditionally used to weigh small amounts.
A unit of weight in gemstones, 200 milligrams (about 3 grains of troy or avoirdupois weight). Abbreviation: c., ct.
Originally, carats weights were only used to measure diamonds but carats have now become the accepted unit of measurement for gemstones as well.
The weight of a gemstone does not necessarily correspond to its size. The reason for this is that difference gemstones have different densities. A one carat round cut ruby will not have exactly the same measurements as a one carat round cut sapphire or emerald because of their different relative densities.
Carat Total Weight: Total carat weight (cttw) is the weight of all the gemstones in an item of jewelry added together.
