Ct" stands for "carat," which is the unit of weight used to measure diamonds and other gemstones.

One carat (ct) equals 200 milligrams (or 0.2 grams).

Carat weight affects the size and often the price of a diamond, but it's not the only factor that determines value.

A higher carat weight typically means a larger-looking diamond, but two diamonds with the same carat weight can look different in size depending on their cut and shape.

It's also important to note that when buying a ring with multiple diamonds (such as a halo or pavé setting), you might see "total carat weight" (abbreviated as ctw or tcw), which refers to the combined weight of all the diamonds in the piece, not just the center stone.
