The global favourite
The 1.00 carat diamond ring is the most popular engagement ring size in the world and with good reason. It offers a rare balance of presence and practicality: large enough to catch the eye, yet refined enough for daily wear.
Its universal appeal lies in its versatility. It complements a wide range of styles, settings, and skin tones, making it a timeless choice for those who want their ring to feel effortlessly right, today and always.
Is 1 carat big for a diamond?
A 1.00 carat diamond may not be the largest option available, but it offers more than enough impact for an engagement ring. A round cut typically measures around 6.4 mm in diameter, delivering visible brilliance without being overpowering.
It’s often seen as the sweet spot: substantial enough to feel special, yet refined enough for everyday life. That’s why so many couples choose it. It marks the commitment without excess, with clarity, confidence and grace.
Designed to reflect your story
Whether you prefer refined minimalism or a touch more brilliance, your 1 carat diamond ring should feel unmistakably yours.
A solitaire design keeps the focus purely on the diamond: clean, balanced, iconic. A halo setting adds depth and light, enhancing visual impact without excess. As for precious metals, white gold offers a modern, icy finish, while yellow gold adds vintage warmth.
