THE CHEAPEST ONE CARAT DIAMONDS

Shopping for diamonds?

Looking for a one carat?

One carat diamonds are considered the dream diamond after all, the most sought after carat weight for an engagement ring.

Well, you’re in luck. Because right now, with the popularity of lab created diamonds, diamonds are cheaper than they’ve ever been (both earth-made and lab-created).

Right now, at James Allen, the cheapest one carat round brilliant cut diamonds you can buy are:

ORIGIN, CARAT WEIGHT PRICE VIEW
EARTH-MADE, 1.00 DIAMONDS $1,170 VIEW
LAB-MADE, 1.00 DIAMONDS $630 VIEW

(Prices good at the time of this post)

These are insane prices.

Especially since just five years ago the average price for a one carat diamond was $6,000.

And when you think about inflation nowadays, with the price of everything doubling and tripling this past year, the fact that diamonds are still getting cheaper is amazing. This is all due to the increase production and demand of lab grown diamonds. They have taken the market by storm and have dropped prices across the board.

This is great for diamond lovers and people shopping for engagement rings or anniversary rings.

But not everyone wants the cheapest…

I mean, with cheap you do get the lowest quality available (low color, low clarity, poor cut). And if you’re like most people, you don’t really want the bottom of the bucket, do you? You actually want a few grades higher, somewhere in the middle; not the best, but not the worst either. That way you don’t spend an arm and a leg, and you still get a wonderful diamond that you will cherish forever.

And with diamonds, generally, that quality is SI1 or higher, with a white color like G-H, and a great cut (very good or excellent), of course.

Diamonds just like these:

ORIGIN, CARAT, CLARITY, COLOR, CUT, POL, SYM, FLUOR PRICE VIEW
EARTH-MADE, 1.00, SI1, G+, VG+, VG+, VG+, NONE $2,150 VIEW

And their lab created equivalents:

ORIGIN, CARAT, CLARITY, COLOR, CUT, POL, SYM, FLUOR PRICE VIEW
LAB-MADE, 1.00, SI1, G+, VG+, VG+, VG+, NONE $770 VIEW

So yes, one carats are much cheaper than ever before, but take advantage of the savings while you can because you never know when the diamond market will change… it’s just a matter of time.
