Diamonds are weighed in carats.
TW is an abbreviation that denotes the total weight of a diamond. Carat is the term to describe the weight of any gemstone or a diamond. In jewellery pieces with more than one diamond the carats may be described in terms of total carat weight. This is the combined total carat weight of all the stones in the piece.
One hundred points make up one carat -- usually. Specifically, carat indicates the stone's weight; that the weight is described in points is not as precise as describing its weight in carats.
Diamond value depends on the '4 Cs': cut, color, clarity and carat weight.
One hundred points are equal to one carat.
There is no direct correlation between a diamond's cut -- i.e., its linear measurements to carat weight. There can only be approximations. For example, a shallow cut will measure larger than a deeper cut stone.
Carat is the measurement of a diamond's weight. The stone's value would partially depend on its carat weight.
All diamonds are weighed in carats. Total carat weight implies that several diamonds make up the total weight.
The carat defines the standard unit of weight measurement of a diamond.

Half carat is the term used to measure the weight of the real diamond. A diamond's weight does not define or detract from the fact that the diamond is or is not a real diamond.
A one carat diamond weighs one carat, or .20 grammes.
One carat weight of diamond weighs .20 grammes, so your diamond is about half that weight, or roughly half a carat.
A one carat diamond weighs one carat, or .20 grammes.
No, a one carat tanzanite gemstone and a one carat diamond are not the same size. Tanzanite is less dense than diamond, so a one carat tanzanite will typically appear larger in size compared to a one carat diamond.
