Price per carat just below vs. at a round carat weight

All shapes, same grade range. Buyers often compare a stone just under a round number with one just over it; this shows how the median price per carat changed across that line in Veyara’s listings.

Using these figures when you shop

Use the median as a reference point, not a price target. A listing well below the middle-half range may differ in cut information, proportions, fluorescence or media; a listing well above it may not look better. Compare the report for the exact stone, then add the setting, labor and tax quoted by your jeweler to get a complete ring budget.

For live minimums by carat range see the lab-grown diamond price guide; for the day-by-day series by carat band see the price index. To get three matching options for a budget, ask Veyara to shortlist stones.

Methodology and limitations

Daily snapshot of Veyara public, available inventory rows listed as IGI or GIA with price and carat > 0, restricted to D–F color and FL/IF/VVS1/VVS2/VS1 clarity. Carat windows start at the stated carat point and end before point × 1.1 (for example 2.00–2.19 ct). Values are Veyara listed totals in USD: minimum, 25th percentile, median, 75th percentile and median listed price per carat. Groups with fewer than 5 listings are not published. Not appraisals, resale estimates or market-wide benchmarks.

Included today: 33,373 public, available rows listed as IGI or GIA, of which 29,221 meet the grade range. A catalog lab field does not assert that Veyara completed a report lookup; each stone page shows the report details and links available for that row. The downloads include 32 daily snapshots.
