Shopping for diamonds?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Looking for a one carat?<\/h2>\n

One carat diamonds are considered the dream diamond<\/strong> after all, the most sought after carat weight for an engagement ring. <\/p>\n

\nWell, you\u2019re in luck<\/strong>. Because right now, with the popularity of lab created diamonds, diamonds are cheaper than they\u2019ve ever been (both earth-made and lab-created).<\/p>\n

\nRight now, at James Allen<\/strong>, the cheapest one carat round brilliant cut diamonds<\/strong> you can buy are: <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
ORIGIN, CARAT WEIGHT<\/strong><\/td>\nPRICE<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
EARTH-MADE, 1.00 DIAMONDS<\/strong><\/td>\n$1,170<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
LAB-MADE, 1.00 DIAMONDS<\/strong><\/td>\n$630<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

(Prices good at the time of this post<\/strong>)<\/p>\n

These are insane prices.<\/h2>\n

\nEspecially since just five years ago<\/strong> the average price for a one carat diamond was $6,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

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

\nThis is great for diamond lovers and people shopping for engagement rings<\/strong> or anniversary rings.<\/p>\n

But not everyone wants the cheapest…<\/h2>\n

\nI mean, with cheap you do get the lowest quality available<\/strong> (low color, low clarity, poor cut). And if you\u2019re like most people, you don\u2019t really want the bottom of the bucket, do you? You actually want a few grades higher<\/strong>, somewhere in the middle; not the best, but not the worst either. That way you don\u2019t spend an arm and a leg<\/strong>, and you still get a wonderful diamond that you will cherish forever.<\/p>\n

\nAnd with diamonds, generally, that quality is SI1 or higher<\/strong>, with a white color like G-H<\/strong>, and a great cut (very good or excellent), of course. <\/p>\n

Diamonds just like these:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
ORIGIN, CARAT, CLARITY, COLOR, CUT, POL, SYM, FLUOR<\/strong><\/td>\nPRICE<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
EARTH-MADE, 1.00, SI1, G+, VG+, VG+, VG+, NONE<\/strong><\/td>\n$2,150<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

\n

And their lab created equivalents: <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
ORIGIN, CARAT, CLARITY, COLOR, CUT, POL, SYM, FLUOR<\/strong><\/td>\nPRICE<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
LAB-MADE, 1.00, SI1, G+, VG+, VG+, VG+, NONE<\/strong><\/td>\n$770<\/strong><\/td>\nVIEW<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

\nSo yes, one carats are much cheaper than ever before<\/strong>, but take advantage of the savings while you can because you never know when the diamond market will change<\/strong>… it\u2019s just a matter of time.<\/p>\n
