APPROXIMATE CARAT WEIGHT CHART FOR SPECIFIC GEMSTONES (& AVERAGE)
This Approximate Carat Weight Chart for various Gemstone materials in relation to their Shape and MM Size serves to help when needing to get a ballpark idea of what an item will cost when multiplying the items carat weight by the items price per carat. The last column is an average of the various gemstone materials weight for a particular shape and size. Please keep in mind that the individual cutting of any specific gemstone will have a great effect on its resulting carat weight. A shallow stone for example will end up weighing less where a heavy belly cut stone will weigh more.
