Si vous cliquez sur l’image d’un extrait « Rap List," vous verrez quatre grilles distinctes. Chacun est pour une catégorie de taille différente. Les quatre catégories présentées sur cet échantillon sont 0.90-0.99, 1.00-1.49, 1.50-1.99, et 2.00-2.99. Chaque grille est une matrice de couleur contre clarté. To find the “Rap Price” for a […]

According to Wikipedia, Martin Rapaport started as a cleaver and rough sorter in Antwerp, Belgique. Dans 1975 he began brokering rough and polished diamonds in New York City and, Dans 1978, created the Rapaport Prices List. Since creating the price list, he’s also known for founding many businesses in the diamond industry, including an […]
As we’ve covered below, a significant amount of the diamond pricing equation is based on the Rapaport Prices List, or Rap List — an industry price list that provides standardized pricing for different diamond color and clarity grades. One interesting outcome of the entire business being based on the Rap List is that far […]
You could imagine very easily that if there’s a 20% price jump from a 0.99ct diamond to a 1.00ct diamond, the cutter who loses that 0.01ct trying to make a prettier stone will lose his job. Perhaps with the nicer cut it will only be worth 15% less instead of 20%, but either way, […]
I stress categories, because you might mistakenly believe that prices per carat increase continuously as weight is increased, but this is not the case. Since diamonds are a retail product driven more by emotion than reason, a 0.99ct diamond is worth only about 1% more than a similar diamond weighing 0.98ct. But a 1.00ct […]
As you’ve probably noticed, the price ranges we’ve listed above for different diamond shapes and carat weights are very large. Par exemple, un 2 carat round brilliant cut diamond can cost upwards of $50,000, or as little as $7,400. Saving money when buying a diamond is all about finding the intersection where a diamond’s […]
Les diamants sont tous évalués au carat. Disons un 0.50 carat de diamant a un prix de $1400 par voiture. Le prix de ce diamant pour la pierre serait $1400 * 0.50, ou $700. Ou, disons qu'un 1 carat de diamant a un prix de $4,100 par voiture. This one is easy to calculate — […]
Diamond prices can vary hugely depending on a diamond’s shape, cut quality, clarity and color. Par exemple, the cost of a one carat diamond can range from just $1,500 to more than $16,000 for an extremely well cut, high quality diamond, while a two carat diamond could cost as little as $6,000 or as […]
When discussing pricing and what is a fair deal, you have to know what you want and how to be sure you are getting what you are paying for. You need to make sure you are following the process to ensure you aren’t getting scammed. It’s hard figuring out how much you should spend […]
Souvent, lorsque les gens entendent le terme « poids en carats," ils pensent que cela fait référence à la taille du diamant. En réalité, Carat fait référence au poids du diamant, pas la taille de la pierre. UN 1 Carat Diamant équivaut à 200 milligrammes, ou 0.2 grammes et pèse environ le même poids qu’un quart de raisin sec. […]
