Diamond Carat Weight

ASHI provides quality jewelry products with authentic gold, silver or platinum with genuine diamonds and/or gemstones. Diamond carat weight is an important ingredient in the diamond jewelry. Of course, no two diamonds are exactly alike. Each is cut to maximize its natural beauty. In the process of diamond cutting, stones are sorted by the resulting diamond weight using the decimal system. To give you the best selection and price, our diamonds fall within a range appropriate to each fractional carat weight listing. The difference may not be visible to the naked eye, but we know it's important to you. That's why we've supplied the following table:

Conflict Diamonds

ASHI uses quality diamonds in merchandise, sourced from the world's most reputed suppliers. We do not buy and use conflict diamonds in our products. We purchase our diamonds only through respected, well-established, legal channels.

Treated / Enhanced Gemstones

ASHI also uses treated or enhanced gemstones. Most natural precious and semi-precious gemstones are treated or enhanced to intensify color, diminish imperfections and improve durability. Some of the common treatment types are Oiling, Heating, Diffusion, Drilling, Irradiation etc.

Online Orders

ASHI accepts online orders only from its approved retailers. In case of online orders, style details and price may not reflect exactly due to special order, sizes or other instructions.
