The Roomy's Guide

Know Your Carat

Two words that sound identical and mean entirely different things. Everything you need to choose with confidence.

A two minute read

Start Here

One sounds like the other.

◆

Think Gold

Karat (Kt)

How pure the gold is. Pure gold is soft, so we blend it with stronger metals you can live in. Yours in 10Kt, 14Kt or 18Kt solid gold.

Think Diamond

Carat (ct)

How much a diamond weighs. One carat is 0.2 grams. Every Roomy's stone is graded D to F colour and VVS to VS clarity.

Part One · Gold

The three karats, made simple.

Higher karat means richer colour. Lower karat means more durability. Neither is better, only better for you.

Part Two · Diamonds

Carat is weight, not size.

◆

Two diamonds of equal weight can look completely different, because the cut decides how the light dances. Cut is the magic. Carat is the measure.

01

Cut

The shape and the source of the fire. Where the sparkle is born.

02

Colour

We choose D to F, the most colourless grades there are.

03

Clarity

We choose VVS to VS, near flawless to the eye.

04

Carat

The weight of the stone. One carat is exactly 0.2 grams.

The Roomy's Standard

We do not deal in diamonds that scrape past the minimum. We choose the ones that quietly exceed it.
