Engagement rings are something that only a few other options match in grandeur, and the right choice happens to be a 5-carat diamond. Most beautiful yet powerful, these mesmerizing precious stones lure not only through their looks but also by the symbolism attached to them: choosing a 5-carat engagement ring is, after all, an announcement of the great love that will lead one to experience and commit to a lot of time. A 5 Carat Diamond Ring can also be considered as an investment-it will become a treasured family heirloom that is passed through generations of loved ones, carrying with it the story of your love.
Be it an investment for a statement piece or for an heirloom to pass down, we're going over the key considerations to consider when deciding which 5-Carat Diamond Ring is the right one to buy.
Is a 5-Carat Engagement Ring Big Enough?
There is no such thing as "too big" when it comes to diamonds. There isn't a one-size-fits-all sort of solution, as size and carat weight depend on preference and finger size. Generally, 5 carats is a pretty significant-looking diamond and much larger than the average size of a diamond which would be placed in an engagement ring. These latter usually fall in the range of 1 to 3 carats.
Some of them need a more prominent stone's aesthetic appearance, while others prefer a smaller, subtle stone for daily wear. The choice of diamond size should be an expression of the personality and lifestyle of the wearer.
Average Cost of a 5-Carat Engagement Rings
The 4Cs
The price may be very much dependent on cut, color, clarity, and general quality. For a 5-carat diamond, the cut is very critical in how light is distributed inside the stone. On the contrary, a poor-cut diamond may appear blank-white even if it has a high carat weight.
Color
Most people wish that their 5-carat diamond be as colorless as possible. The GIA grades a diamond's color on a scale of D (colorless) to Z (noticeable color), with higher grades being the most colorless. In bigger diamonds, like a 5-carat stone, the size can make color tints more noticeable. We at Jean Dousset only work with lab diamonds that come in H or better.
Clarity
Clarity refers to the existence of internal and external imperfections in a diamond. Because larger stones, such as a 5-Carat Diamond Ring, can manifest inclusions more vividly owing to their size, the clarity of these larger stones might be compromised with larger stones. Yet again, however, some inclusions may not be visible without magnification, and some of these inclusions may not affect the overall general appearance of the diamond. A higher grade of clarity can add a more significant amount to the price of the diamond, but the impact of clarity on price may be made up for through the other Cs.
Cut
Not all diamonds are cut or created equal. That's why Jean Dousset hand-selects only the top 1% of the world's finest lab diamonds, offering only colorless or nearly colorless lab diamonds to choose from when crafting your engagement ring.
