Determining a diamond’s quality: The Carat

- Hand and Finger Size
- The appearance of a diamond can be affected by the size of a person’s hand and/or fingers
- Setting
- The right setting can really enhance the overall presentation of a diamond
- Budget
- This is an important factor to establish early on in the diamond selection process
