Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond a good size for an engagement ring? +
Yes. A 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond is a very popular choice for engagement rings.
The elongated shape offers strong finger coverage and a refined, elegant look while still
feeling comfortable and practical for everyday wear.
Does a 1 carat Oval Cut diamond look larger than a 1 carat Round diamond? +
Often yes. Because of its length and surface area, a 1 carat Oval Cut usually appears
slightly larger face-up than a 1 carat Round diamond. The elongated outline creates
the impression of more size without increasing carat weight.
What makes a 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond look well-balanced and flattering? +
A well-cut Oval has even curves, a centred point at each end, and balanced shoulders.
When you divide the diamond down the middle, both halves should mirror each other.
This symmetry, combined with good proportions, gives a graceful, flattering look on the hand.
Do 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamonds sparkle as much as Round diamonds? +
Oval Cuts are brilliant-cut stones, so they can be very bright and lively. They may show
a slight “bow-tie” effect in the centre, which is common, but a well-cut Oval keeps this
subtle while maintaining strong brilliance and fire across most of the face.
Which colour and clarity grades are ideal for a 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond? +
Oval Cuts can show colour and inclusions more near the ends and edges. Many buyers prefer
D–H colour and VVS–VS clarity in the 1 carat range to keep the stone looking bright and
eye-clean in natural light and everyday viewing.
Are 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamonds certified by IGI or GIA? +
Yes. 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamonds are commonly certified by IGI, GIA, and other
respected laboratories. The certificate provides full grading for the 4Cs along with
proportions, polish, symmetry, and growth method (CVD or HPHT).
Is a 1 carat Oval Cut diamond suitable for everyday jewellery? +
Yes. A 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond is well suited for daily wear in engagement rings,
pendants, and fine jewellery. As with any diamond, a secure setting and regular checks on
the prongs help maintain long-term durability.
Which ring settings work best with a 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond? +
Oval Cuts look beautiful in solitaire, halo, three-stone, and pavé band designs. North–south
orientations create a classic elongated look, while east–west settings feel modern and
distinctive. Halos can also make a 1 carat Oval appear even larger on the hand.
Does a 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamond offer good value compared to mined diamonds? +
Yes. Lab Grown diamonds generally offer more value than mined diamonds, and Oval Cuts often
cost less per carat than Round stones. This combination lets you choose higher quality or
a more premium setting while staying within your budget.
Do 1 carat Oval Cut Lab Grown diamonds come in different proportions and length-to-width ratios? +
Yes. Oval diamonds are available in a range of length-to-width ratios, from shorter, wider
shapes to more elongated silhouettes. This allows you to choose a softer, classic Oval or a
slimmer, more modern look while remaining in the 1 carat range.
