A carat is a unit of weight for gemstones. It equals 200 milligrams. The term originates from the carob seeds once used as balance scales. In jewellery, carat indicates the size of a diamond or gemstone. Higher carat weights often mean greater value. However, quality also depends on cut, colour, and clarity. Understanding carats is essential for buyers.
