Diamonds
The weight of a diamond is measured in carats. A carat is divided in 100 points so that a diamond of 50 points equals 1/2 a carat. A round brilliant cut diamond of 1 carat has an approximate diameter of 6.6mm.The word carat originates from the Greek word keration, referring to the shape of the seedpods of the carob tree. The seeds are small and uniform in size and weight; therefore, they were a standard for weighing gemstones in early times.

| Sapphires
The most common colour is Blue, but can be colourless, pink, orange, yellow, green, purple, and black. Burmese sapphires have a deep blue that is intense and velvety. These sapphires are not often seen on the market today. Sri Lankan sapphires are the most common, with a wide range of colours from very light to dark blue. Other producers of blue sapphire are Australia, Madagascar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Montana.
