How much do a 3 karat diamond ring cost?

Answer 1

Depending on the cut, colour, clarity and exact carat weight, you could buy a diamond of about this weight today from Blue Nile and spend between US$17,000 and US$21,000.

Then, you'd pay for the setting.

Answer 2

The cost of the earrings depends on whether you want a total of three carats, i.e., 1.5 carats for each earring, or whether you want a total of six carats.

In either case, every diamond is priced according to its cut, clarity, colour and carat weight.

A local jeweler can show you the earrings in your price range that match whichever total carat weight you want to buy.

Answer 3

Your answer depends on whether you want half a carat for each ear, or half a carat total. In addition, you must factor in the cost of the setting.

Today, at Blue Nile, you can purchase half carat diamonds and pay between US$576 and US$3,560, depending on the colour, cut, clarity and exact carat weight that you want.

You would pay less for smaller carat diamonds.

Answer 4

Diamond prices rise considerably after they reach the half-carat benchmark. Half-carat diamonds and those under half-carat cost significantly less and offer a great value. A small difference in carat-weight is impossible to perceive with the naked eye. The cut, shape, clarity, color and carat of a diamond also have an impact on the price, which can range from $700 to as high as $3000.

Answer 5

Diamonds have no value. None whatsoever. If you don't believe me, take a 3 carat diamond ring to a pawn shop. They'll buy the gold, offer you close to nothing for the diamond.
