A common misconception. Carat is nothing to do with size. Carat is related to weight and therefore a 1 carat stone depends on the gemstone in question and its cut.

1 carat is 0.2g and a 1 carat round-cut diamond is approximately 6.5mm in diameter. Similarly, since CZ is a diamond simulant, a 1 carat round-cut CZ is also deemed to be one that is 6.5mm in diameter but such a stone actually weighs more than 0.2g because CZ is more dense than diamond.
