About 2.5 Carat Diamond Rings
Create a head-turning look, with a 2.5 carat engagement ring. 2.5 carat diamond rings command attention, with a sizeable diamond guaranteed to radiate intense sparkle. Considerably above the average engagement ring diamond size, a 2.5 carat engagement ring will certainly make an impression. A 2.5 carat ring has become less uncommon with the rise of lab diamonds, which have far lower prices per carat and allow couples to achieve higher carat weights with their budgets.
Measuring around 8.8mm, a round 2.5 carat diamond will provide great finger coverage, giving a full look, with endless scintillation.

A 2.5 carat diamond ring starts at around £8,800 - but the price varies hugely depending on whether you choose a lab diamond or natural diamond.
A good quality 2.5 carat diamond typically costs £8,100 if it’s a loose lab grown diamond, or upwards of £30,000 if it's a loose natural diamond. The total price of a 2.5 carat diamond ring will have the additional cost of the ring setting itself, starting at £700.
You should be aware that diamond prices fluctuate, and this should be used as a guide price accurate at the time of writing.
2.5 carat diamond rings are well above the average engagement ring diamond size. A 2.5ct round diamond measures around 8.8mm in diameter - or a little lengthier if you’re looking at elongated shapes like oval diamonds. A 2.5 carat diamond weighs 500mg regardless of its shape.
A 2.5ct round diamond has a diameter of around 8.8mm. Elongated shapes, like oval diamonds, tend to look bigger as more of the carat weight is spread across the surface of the diamond - a 2.5ct oval diamond typically measures 11mm, but this can vary depending on how the oval is cut.
Most would agree a 2.5 carat engagement ring isn’t too big - but, it is certainly bigger than most people’s engagement rings. A 2.5 carat diamond ring will look big, without being too inconvenient or too flashy for most people and their daily lives. Should your profession inhibit you from wearing big jewellery, you may want to consider something a little smaller. Or of course, you can always take it off when it’s inconvenient - just keep it somewhere safe!
