The appearance of a diamond depends on its cuts rather than weight. A diamond with small carat weight may appear larger if it has higher cut grades.

Cut

Cut determines the sparkle or shine of a diamond which is the main attraction of diamond stone. Therefore, cut is considered as the most important feature of a diamond.

If a diamond is not properly cut, it will appear dull even it has good clarity and color grade. So, always consider the cut grade before purchasing your diamond ring.
