Best Answer

The value of any diamond depends on its colour, clarity and cut in addition to its carat weight.

For example, today on Blue Nile, you can purchase a single two-carat diamond and pay between US$7,622 and US$22,299. As well, you can purchase two one-carat diamond and pay between US$2,126 and US$8,761 -- each number times two. The variables in price are based on clarity, colour and cut.

Finally, remember that the value of whatever you have is only worth as much as someone will pay you for it.
