How to get the most out of a 10-carat diamond ring
How big is a 10 carat diamond?
A 10 carat diamond with round cut, the most common diamond shape, will be approximately 14×14×8.44mm. However, bear in mind that carat is a measure of diamond weight, not size. This means that different diamond shapes will also hold their carat weight differently — for example, a princess cut diamond will appear larger than a round cut due to the larger diagonal length of the diamond’s shape.
Settings for 10ct diamonds
The right setting for a 10-carat diamond depends largely on your budget, preferences and frankly, the style. It’s also important to find a balance between diamond size and setting style.
Opting for a thin band with a 10 carat diamond creates a trendy “floating” appearance with the large diamond taking on a more prominent appearance in exchange for a more delicate wearing feel. On the other hand, a wide ring band and setting can better accommodate the size of the 10 ct diamond, resulting in a more secure feel. From a striking 10 carat diamond solitaire to a larger-than-life double halo, certain settings can make the diamond look larger. At GS Diamonds, we have a team of diamond experts that can provide you with detailed recommendations to help you create the perfect diamond ring.
