Every Diamond Shape and Carat Size Shown on the Hand and Finger
Vložit

- Some of the first questions people ask when searching for an engagement ring are:
Which diamond shape will look best on my hand? How does each diamond shape or size look on my finger? How large does a 1 carat diamond look, a 2 carat diamond, etc? Which diamond shape looks the largest?
To answer some of these questions be sure to watch this insightful video which shows all of the popular diamond shapes on the hand in each carat weight increment. You can fast forward to the section of your choice starting in this order: round, cushion cut, elongated cushion cut, oval diamonds, pear shapes, emerald cuts, radiant cuts, marquise, asscher, princess cut and heart shapes.
For each shape, we show a center-stone set into a ring starting as low as .50 carats and all the way up to 5 carats. Each section ends with real life videos of finished engagement rings from Lauren B with center-stones of that size. Enjoy the show!

For everyone who was wondering (just as I did) the model’s ring size is 5.5 :)
That is great to know. I have a 4.0 ring size so the diamond will look even bigger on me than on the model since her finger is larger. Bigger the finger, small the diamond looks.
You think you know exactly what you want, and then the man you love proposes with something totally different and you don't care! I always wanted a ring by the brand Verragio. They are very ornate. Stupidly, I never told my then boyfriend. When he proposed with a simple, 1.25ct cushion cut solitaire, I fell in love with it and wouldn't trade it for anything. Just the idea that he went to a jewelry store and said, "that's the one for her" is so sweet to me. 🙂
😭❤
Congratulations!
Very sweet😊 Congrats!
We as men appreciate this post! 😩
It’s so supposed to be about a man putting his heart into finding you something he either feels you’ll love or feels represents the beauty he sees when he looks at you. Men don’t enjoy jewelry shopping lol so going through it and spending the time to find something special is meaningful ❤️
Got engaged last week and we picked out a 1/3 carat ring. We are young and graduating higher ed soon but we love each other and it’s what we could afford. Ladies, it doesn’t matter what the size of the ring is, just the size of his heart. Also- I’ve always hated when rings get caught on things anyway, so smaller was perfect for me as I am a very clumsy and active person, lol.
Well said👌🏻Congrats!🎩💍👰🏻
CZcams algorithm at it again
LOL
Same. No idea how I got here...
Also this makes me want to get my nails done 😂
I found the marquise absolutely stunning on the hand. Also, the elongated cushion is magnificent.
I used to be a marquise fan but that dreaded dark bow tie affect really bothers me, just like on the other elongated shapes. The cushion though seems to have that issue much less, so I pick the cushion shape between the two.
That’s it, I need 5 CT 😂
Get it!!
I know exactly how you felt! 😂
Of course you do 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
@@David-vb8tg yep.
I have a 5 carat fake diamond ring that I love wearing but it’s definitely a big stone...my real diamond is 1 ct and perfect.
Girlfriend sent me here. Think she's trying to tell me something
Take the hint
bro you better run!!!
The oval and marquise cuts look way bigger than their actual size. Even with a 1 carat, they still look flattering as heck.
You didn’t search for this video, you just clicked on it
Actually, was looking for this, I just bought a diamond ring
I have a question 👋 , where can I order a ring 💍 within my price range ? I'm very impressed by the detail of the collection you have , to offer to the customers . Can you please text me some , so I have a better idea what I'm looking for . Here's my email address :mildreddaye65@yahoo.com
Yes
I searched for it
Pear cut is beautiful!
Radiant cuts with excellent length to width ratio are my favorite cut diamond. I have a one-carat radiant solitaire that is colorless and VS2 clarity, and it's beautiful! I prefer a diamond that may be a bit smaller but has a higher cut grade, color, and clarity! There are so many beautiful options.
This video was rlly helpful BUT it would have been nice to know the ring size of the girl modelling all the diff sizes because my ring finger is quite small a 5 US or a J in Australian. Although from the video I do think I want Oval in anything from 1ct to 1.5 but can't be sure since idk how thicc this girl's finger is lol.
Sarah james in another comment the author of the video stated the ring size of the model is 5 1/2
Thank you! Yes she is a 5.5
@@David-vb8tg look on clean Origin & get that girl the ring she wants...and save your wallet.
@@David-vb8tg I didn’t care. Lab grown is still a diamond. I picked out a 2.5ct VVS & a pave band for under 7k 🤷🏻♀️ we’re both happy.
My wedding set is a 1.50 ct marquise center stone with 2 blue sapphires on either side of the center stone. Then 2 more marquise diamonds on either side of the sapphires. The sapphires are .50 carat and the other diamonds are .25 carat. My wedding band is a diamond and sapphire eternity band and I have 1 band on each side of my engagement ring...3 rings total. This set is almost 30 yrs old and I STILL get compliments on it regularly because it's so unique. The hubs did good!!
Is anyone else here with no boyfriend, no potentials... And yet you're watching this thinking you're gonna buy yourself a ring because you don't need to man 😬🤷
me too, sis )))
I’ve already bought myself three diamond rings (not as big as these rocks though) independent life FTW
You must be ugly I guess....look at yourself in the mirror for a solid 30 seconds...then reply back
Mariah Andrus I just purchased a 250 dollar ring for myself the other day 😗😂
I just got one yesterday and I’m really happy!!
They all look so much bigger than i expected. I always thought 1 carat was kinda small but it looks like the average size diamond in my opinion!
They actually look bigger in videos. I went to look at 1ct in person. They’re small. But when it got to 1.50 or 1.75. You can see the difference.
That’s true. It does look smaller in real life!
It also depends on the size of a hand.. I’ve got quite big fingers (size 7 or 7.5) and most photos and videos of stone size comparison I see on the internet is on a hand w/ ring sizes around 6. So the stone will look smaller on a bigger hand
Btw the model on this video has a 5.5 ring size. :) hope this helps
I think about my mom and dad and how her first ring had a .25ct diamond and she loved it to pieces and now after 30 years of marriage to my dad and her ring getting lost in a move, she is getting herself a little over a carat in size and she thinks it’s huge! She always had small fingers when young but she is now a size 7. I feel like a carat is a good size for most fingers.
@@nessapie23 yes! My mom had the .25 size too for 31 years now! I just got engaged and got a 1 carat emerald cut sapphire and I wouldn't want it any bigger tbh
I hope you can feature the carat size on a bigger finger size too. in my case I wear size 9 and barely sees one so hard to really know what cut is best for my chunky finger
I wear a size 9 as well. I think elongated radiant cut, emerald cut, or oval cut is the best for a size 9 finger. Also at least a 1.50 ct diamond in a halo or a 2.00 carat diamond at least without a halo would look great. If you and your man has the money I would go for a 2.50 carat stone
If you want a diamond I would recommend getting a lab diamond since they're basically half the price of natural diamonds even tho it's made of the same chemical compound. This way you can go for a bigger stone and not be in debt lol
I think you should check out Jeulia.com. I have 3 ring sets from them and it's stunning! You cannot tell the difference. I get compliments all the time and catch people staring at my hands. They are not cz but lab created which is the way to go. It's a 9 on a scale compared to a diamond being a 10. I opted to go with a lab created because the more research I did on diamonds I found they are literally worthless! There is nothing special or rare about them. We've been made to think they are and that there's social status with them. Not to mention the slave labor. And this is not against anyone who wants a diamond or has one. If you are interested check them out!
Totally agree Jennifer!
I recommend east west gem company. Their rings are so gorgeous and cut diamond like. Their rings are made of Moissanite.
This is a really good video! Wish I had this to watch when looking for an engagement ring 💍
That 3 carat is soo gorgeous!!! I'm 52 years old, not married, so I guess at this old age,I'll have to buy myself a 3 carat ring🙄
I just did it for my 50th birthday 🎂
To be honest it’s my own goals to be able to buy my own.
This is an invaluable video. Thank you!
How much
Do you know her finger size?
@@jacques-christiancharlier6862 no
You need to do one of these on earrings! I had such a hard time deciding what size to buy for my studs. I’ve thought of upgrading over the years, but it’s the same old thing. What do they look like on the ear! A visual reference would be so helpful!
Good idea!!
@@laurenbjewelry one for a diamond necklaces would be great too!
My engagement ring is a marquise cut diamond solitaire and I have small hands and slim fingers so it looks amazing people always assume it’s a much bigger carat than it is because the stone is long and slimmer than the ones shown. It’s 0.3 carat and doesn’t overpower my hand or look like it’s wearing me. My fiancé had it made for me and he even nicknamed it ‘Marcus’
Enjoy your beautiful marquise! They look way bigger than their actual size for sure!
Just celebrated 28 years with my 1 carat marquise diamond. On my 10th anniversary my husband added baguettes. Love my ring, love my marriage. Congratulations!
@@GhostofMrsMuir1443 congratulations to you both x I got married 3 weeks ago and hearing about long successful marriages is just music to my ears
I noticed that the 2 Ct Marquise vs 3 Ct. Marquise look different with the larger carat weight looking very slim, table and depth with ratio play so much into how big it looks. Beautiful, thank you for showing this. Love your rings.
My top picks are oval vs pear. I can't decide between them, I love both shapes!
Ugly bow tie affect though.
Thank for this. I feel like only a few us realize that different sizes look different on the finger, opposed to in a box.
The oval cut 💕 is my favorite. It would be beautiful in a 1 carat Canary diamond solitaire on a 2 mm gold band 🥰
Thanks, this really helped me in my search for engagement rings. I’m so glad I’m with a German woman who would kick my ass if I bought her a 3 carat ring for 30k instead of spending that money on traveling the world together. Some of those larger rock sizes looked really impractical and in poor taste. A 4 carat ring seems like it would get caught in clothing and hair and is disproportionate to the ring and the woman’s hand. Probably gonna get a 1ct oval
I wear a size 4.5 and I have a 2.1-carat oval sapphire. It's really lovely and was very affordable considering the going rates for diamonds!
@Lana No one is saying there's anything wrong with a large rock. Personally, I'm not into a stone that size; however, mine is 2.1 carats which might be considered too large by other people's standards! I ultimately think adopting a universal rule such as, "1-carat is the reasonable size for an e-ring" isn't a good idea because people have different finger sizes and preferences; however, there are some practical hindrances with a larger stone. Mine, for instance, is set in a high double gallery mount which means it can get caught on things and snag. That's not a big deal for me; I just twist the stone to the inside of my finger when I put on clothes/take clothes off, but some people might not want to deal with that. I really appreciate you for suggesting moissanite though! They are definitely more economical and ethical for rings. If I hadn't gone with a sapphire, I definitely would've picked moissanite. As for the ring shaming, I don't doubt that people can be negative about big stones, but I've also seen people, especially with diamonds, shame women who have smaller diamonds or diamonds with lower clarity, so I think people can just be kind of judgy about rings, unfortunately.
Jamal Nichols I know enough about diamonds to recommend to always get a D color, as the best color is no color. Then choose the clarity you can afford. Also, I bought diamonds on Adiamor online, and they were all appraised for a lot more than I paid for them.
1-2c is, in my opinion, the ideal size for a center stone. Round is the most popular and traditional cut but an oval will appear bigger.
Look into clarity enchanted rings, mine cost 2k vs the 10k it would have cost had it been pulled out of the ground at that clarity and color.
@@sbradley1308 clarity enhanced diamonds are at high risk for breaking
What a GREAT video! I have an idea you might want to do in a video. This video is great because it gives perspective of different size and cut will look on the model's hand. Because there are also noticeable differences in color and clarity, perhaps you could do a video showing nearly identical weight and cut stones showing the variation in color, perhaps a "D" compared to a "H" color stone, or a "IF" to a lower clarity stone. In any case, great job on this video! Well done!
Thank you so much! We will definitely keep that in mind
Asscher cuts are so incredible! Instead of glittering and sparkling they deserve the eye so deeply into them!
That 5 CT asscher!!! My ultimate dream ring.
in the video the 5 ct asscher was a dirty stone, many inclusions... a crappy stone...
people so vain having to go for the big diamond...
My kindred spirit! I've been obsessed with asschers for years, and never find anyone who agrees with me! And yes, that 5CT-- i audibly gasped when I saw it!!😍😍
@@melodiechartier5173 people are literally talking about a fantasy- an "if only" situation. How catty and rude of you to be so judgmental of people you don't know, over something that literally does not affect you in any way whatsoever. 🙄🙄🤦♀️🤦♀️
2.0 carats is my dream perfect size!!
Yes!!!
I have a lovely 2 ct round that I really love. I think 2 ct compliment almost all hand sizes. Mine has a bit of a deeper setting so it rarely ever gets in the way. 🌻
I have a 2 carat princess cut. It's a great size.
Sams!
Enjoyed the the video and the music 🎵. All the diamond shapes are lovely. I like the smaller carat size. My favorite is the princess cut 💍👌🏻
My faves are elongated cushion and radiant 💖
I love the Round, Heart & Cushion the best. Beautiful!!!
Princess cut✨😍
omg, can EVERY video have a timestamped table of contents at the beginning?? LOVE that feature! great video.
Thank you!
Please make a version of this video for different ratio stones. For example a 1:1, 1.2:1, 1.3:1, and 1.4:1 radiant cut. I’d love to figure out what ratio I like best.
Pardon me if I'm wrong, but, I don't understand why jewelers put diamonds on the SIDE of the ring. Looks gorgeous for sure, but, when you put the matching band next to it, the diamonds on the side get covered up by the ring or rings, if you decide to go with two wedding rings to go on both sides, and also, wouldn't the diamonds on the sides of the engagement and wedding rings get scratched?
16 years ago, I found Better Than Diamond website and I bought the Asha simulated diamonds because at the time, that's all they offered and got one of every shape( except the round stone and since they didn't make the shapes, the marquise and the heart) in the 2 carat size and since they didn't have the 2 carat in the Pear size, I got the 2.50 carat pear. They are still beautiful to this day. I will have to say, that the 2 carat size in the fancy shapes are the perfect size for me, but, for some reason, I do have 1.50, 2 and 2.50 carat Diamonique rings and I find in the round diamond, 1.50 is the perfect size for my hand. Weird. Anything bigger than a 1.50 is too large, but, seems perfect in the fancy shapes. I used to wear a size 6, but, have gained some weight and now, I wear size 7, which is what I wear on my right hand. :D
Asscher cut is my favorite followed by Emerald cut
Brilliant aka round for win.
Next oval and pear are equally beautiful.
this video is so soothing lol
Thanks for watching! Glad you feel relaxed
Ascher cut is my favourite 😍
One of the most unique diamond cuts!
Your videos are always so helpful and informative! Thank you!
Thank you!
This is a nice reference but people also need to think with the actual cut of the diamond. A cut can make a 1CT look like anywhere between a .75 to a 1.25. Especially the marquise shape. Depending on the cut, a marquise can look half or double it’s actual CT.
That is why we based this on slightly above average dimensions for each sizes/shape
Lauren B Jewelry yeah but you should be more specific about that. Your average size is not going to look how your video displayed it. I’d be so disappointed if I ordered a ct based on your size and it came to me looking nearly half the size. You should at least mention it
Im engaged.
Congratulations 🥳
Congrats
Congrats...me too 😁
Congrats! 🎩💍👰🏻
Can’t choose between a 5 carat cushion or oval I love them both
Truee, it'd be nice if you put the model's hand size on the description. I read 5.75 for the solitaire and 5.5 for other ones, maybe the one with pink nail polish.
Wow, I really enjoyed this video!
Glad to hear that
Very helpful! Thanks for posting.
OMG I thought I knew exactly what I wanted🤷🏾♀️
Thank you so very much for this video! It was beautiful and inspiring 💕. Keep them coming!
Thank you! Will do!
Would be helpful to have this video with different sized fingers. Love this video though!
Great idea!
0.5 carat is enough. 🤲 just give it already! Lol
What is the model’s hand size ?
Finger size 5.5
The 3ct round diamond on her finger looks bigger than on my finger that's cause mine is abit rounder than her finger
Yes each shape will look different on each person! That's what makes them all unique
@@laurenbjewelry I'm getting a 5ct heart shape diamond for my 23rd anniversaries... Which would be better in value, the wider shape or the elongated shape....thanks
My husban gave methe most beautyful ringfor our 19 anerversy had 19 dimondsround dinner ring we were mairred for forty three years but enyways they STOLE it 2 years i had for my Grand DAUGHTER u can imagen how i felt im so heart 💔 my husban left to be our LORD 10 years ago i never took it off except to do dishs and it WALKED away im always looking to 👀 if u show thank you GOD BLESS korrine
Does anyone ever wonder what size the model is wearing? And what size their hand is for comparison to mine? Proportion is everything and this is my first time looking
Her ring size is 5.75
The oval gemstone cut is my favorite and the round cut is a close second. 💎💍💎💍
This video was really helpful !!
We are happy you enjoyed it!
3.23 CT Pear Ring was my favorite 😍💍
Excellent video! Great information! Also I usually do not like the background music on CZcams videos. However your music choice is excellent! Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
My dream was always a 2ct Ascher cut in an art deco setting, preferably in silver since platinum is a softer metal. Got proposed with a 1/3ct anniversary setting. Recently upgraded to a 2ct round black diamond with a skull wedding band.
They all nice. But it all depends on the woman hands that make the carat look smaller or bigger. I prefer a 1.0 or 2.0 carat is the perfect size on a small to medium hand
Best video ever! I have referred to this so many times! Thank you so much!
Thank you- glad it is helpful!
Of course the round cut is my favorite. I have extremely expensive taste 😞 Without even trying
Very helpful for my current situation. Thank you.
I think I need a smaller diamond 😅 I currently have a cushion cut engagement ring that's 4ct and my finger is a size 4.25 so it takes up my whole finger 🤣
Agreed. My size is 4.75 and I tried on a 5 carat. It was beautiful but a little too big. I think between 2.5 and 3.5 carat is the sweet spot. Gives the wow factor without overwhelming the finger.
Table of contents?! Influencers don’t even make videos of this quality. Amazing video!!
We try out best!
Why don't you put prices on ur website?
Wish it would have shown the smaller size cushion cuts being rotated on the hand instead of skipping right to the 1c...
Ladies who are simple your big diamond is going to annoy you. I can't wait to get married so I can just wear the band.
Simply elegant ❤️
My ring size is only a 1.25 center stone with side baguettes in platinum. However the quality is impeccable, it’s as clear as can be. I have a square emerald shape with tapered baguettes on the side. And my wedding band is an infinity diamond band in platinum, with a unique hexagon shape. We actually got them custom made at a private jeweler. Love my rings!
Loved cushion & elongated cushion (3 & 4 ct). Just noticed my former favs (radiant & emerald) aren’t as sparkly.
No way! Radiants have more facets than a cushion and have a ton of fire. But you are right about Emerald cuts - not as sparkly.
My husband bought me a 0.75 ct halo e-ring and I feel like the halo helps make the diamond look bigger. Before he told me the price of diamond rings I was asking for a 5ct ring 🤣
What a well made and useful video! Thank you. :)
Thank you Susan!
Round cut and Asscher are my favesd, and 2 kt would be perfect (more would be even better) the heart looks nice too, they arer all beautiful, that 2.01 heart with the split band was stunning!!
Yes! We love them too
Just beautiful. I love jewellery. My favourite is cushion and Asscher. Thanks for tyis!!
I have a round 1.5 diamond engagement ring and I think it’s a beautiful ring but any bigger and it’s like a gum ball machine ring and it’s also about the grading, mine was nearly 10k because it was a good grading.
Incredibly helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I like the cushion one the best
i dont knw why but i m in lov with princess cut
I like the princess cut too 😊💍👌🏻
Amazing video brilliant video
Thank you for posting something like this
Glad you enjoyed it
what are the dimensions of the 2.50 elongated cushion?
8.5x7.6
I like the 3.0 ct Marquise
What are the dimensions and ratios of the 1.70ct and 2.0ct radiant cuts at @7:20?? Also the 1.8ct @7:35??
Please email sara@laurenb.com for detailed inquiries!

Wedding bands should be a simple, humble band of gold.
hi i'd like to know what whats the ring size of the one wearing it? because the size may differ for smaller & bigger ring size.. I'd like to know, for reference when I buy my ring 😊
3 k is perfect 👌
Perfect for those fat fingers
0:47, 1:57 🤍 2.75 or 3CT round seems perfect..😍 of course I wouldn't mind getting something bigger haha
This is a wonderful video. But, for some reason, the stones in person actually look slightly smaller than here in the video. So, be aware that your stone might look smaller than what you see here!
Yes diamond carat weight is just suggestive of how large it will look. Some are cut deeper and thus appear smaller than their carat weight suggests while others are cut more precisely to allow a larger face up appearance.
@@laurenbjewelry Thanks for your response. I think the reason is also because of it being a video. It looks different in person.
Even the 1c seems too big for me. I don’t wear a lot of Jewelry so it has to be something that’s barely there lol sooo maybe a 0.5 or 0.75 oval cut? I know I definitely want oval
You can definitely go for that size!! Choose what makes you feel good and comfortable :)
Really nice video. It would be good to know the glove size of the hand shown in the stills and perhaps the ring size shown. The live shots. They are at different magnifications, so not “apples to apples” when trying to compare. Some shots the rings are not down on the finger, some side-by-sides are with different hands..... Again harder to judge 🙁. The rings are beautiful and I’m most intrigued by the darker stones. They have an attractive depth.
Oval & Pear 😍
We love those elongated shapes too!
I feel like when it comes to an emerald-cut, nothing looks good after 1.5. it starts to look tacky.
2.0 CT Oval. DREAM RING RIGHT THERE 💕💕
I tried on a 2 carat oval and it looks tiny
Would be nice to know the prices too
I would like to see prizes korrine
This video is so helpful!
I'm so glad!
Marquise very extraordinary
My 0.5 round cut ring on my size 4 finger is perfect ❤❤
