Before purchasing a diamond, one should make sure it looks its weight. It's important to understand that carat weight does not equal face-up size.

Two diamonds of exactly the same weight (and shape) can vary quite considerably in face-up size. This depends on the proportions of the cut (e.g., deep cuts will face up smaller).

Here you can see the actual sizes of 4.75ct Radiant (9.71×9.71×6.21mm) and 5.4ct Asscher (9.85×9.85×6.4mm) as they would appear on a ring and finger.

Depth percentage for 4.75 carat Radiant (9.71×9.71×6.21mm)

Depth percentage of Radiant cut is the ratio of the total depth (measured from table to culet) to its width. The total depth percentage of this diamond is 64%, which is OK. (Recommended depth percentage for Radiants is between 59% and 70%)

Depth percentage for radiants is calculated with the following formula:
Depth % = (total depth ÷ width) × 100

4.75 carat Radiant (9.71×9.71×6.21mm) depth %:
Total depth: 6.21 mm
Width = 9.71 mm
Depth % = (6.21 ÷ 9.71 ) × 100 = 64%

Depth percentage for 5.4 carat Asscher (9.85×9.85×6.4mm)

Depth percentage of Asscher cut is the ratio of the total depth (measured from table to culet) to its width. The total depth percentage of this diamond is 65%, which is OK. (Recommended depth percentage for Asschers is between 60% and 69%)

Depth percentage for asschers is calculated with the following formula:
Depth % = (total depth ÷ width) × 100

5.4 carat Asscher (9.85×9.85×6.4mm) depth %:
Total depth: 6.4 mm
Width = 9.85 mm
Depth % = (6.4 ÷ 9.85 ) × 100 = 65%

About Depth Percentage
Depth percentage is one of the most important measurements as it plays a critical role in diamond's appearance. If a diamond is cut too deep or too shallow, light leaks out, making the stone less brilliant and fiery. Deep cuts also add hidden weight.

Diamonds that fall out of recommended depth range are generally less desirable and usually best to be avoided.


Face-up size evaluation for 4.75 carat Radiant (9.71×9.71×6.21mm)

The face-up size of this 4.75 carat Radiant (9.71×9.71×6.21mm) is within the normal range for 4.75ct diamonds of this shape. Compared to 4.75ct Radiant reference diamond (see below), this diamond is of adequate size when viewed from the top. In short, all is OK, this diamond looks its weight.

The importance of face-up size
Diamonds are sold by weight (carats), but it's important to understand that weight doesn't equally translate into physical size, especially spread. Two diamonds of the same carat weight can vary greatly in spread, meaning that one diamond can appear larger than the other, even though they weight exactly the same.

Proper face-up size should play an important role when buying a diamond. When a diamond is set in a ring, your eyes will only see the face-up area, so you should make sure it's of adequate size. Adequate size also indicates a good cut, meaning better light performance. For example, if given a choice between a poorly cut 4.8 carat Radiant with less sparkle and the same face-up size as a well cut 4.5ct Radiant, which one would you choose?

The bottom line: A diamond must look its weight. This one does. Thumbs up.

4.75 carat Radiant reference diamond
Since there are no specific ideal proportions defined for Radiant cuts, an estimation formula is used to calculate the Radiant reference diamond.
Parameters:
Weight: 4.75ct
Depth: 64%
L/W ratio: 1
 
Calculated values:
Length: 9.71 mm
Width: 9.71 mm
Depth: 6.21 mm
*Est. face-up area: 89.57 mm²
Note: Radiant diamonds with face-up area of within 9% lower and 12% higher than reference Radiant diamond area are considered to be of adequate face-up size.
* Estimated Face-up area: Face-up area of Radiant cuts is only an estimation (±4%). Due to uniqueness of each stone, it's impossible to accurately calculate face-up area given only a diamond's measurements.

Face-up Area per Carat

Face-up area per carat is calculated by dividing face-up area of the diamond with its carat weight. It tells you how many square millimeters of the top surface area a diamond is showing or would show for 1 carat weight. This can be useful when comparing stones of similar weights as it tells you how much spread per carat you will get.

Note: Face-up size does not linearly grow with carat weight, which means the heavier the stone, the smaller its face-up area per carat (e.g., 1ct stone will have higher face-up area per carat than 2ct stone).

Face-up area per carat for 4.75ct Radiant (9.71×9.71×6.21mm):
Top surface area = 89.57 mm²
Weight = 4.75ct

Face-up area per carat = 89.57 ÷ 4.75 = 18.86mm²/ct

Face-up area per carat for 5.4ct Asscher (9.85×9.85×6.4mm):
Top surface area = 89.26 mm²
Weight = 5.4ct

Face-up area per carat = 89.26 ÷ 5.4 = 16.53mm²/ct
