By Lavora Diamonds, Provo, Utah. Updated October 2026.

A $2,000 budget at 1 carat leaves room to upgrade the color grade, add a hidden halo or size up the stone. A 3.0ct E/VS1 emerald solitaire in 14K yellow gold is $2,150–$2,525. Your exact price comes with your 3D render. Complete engagement rings have a $2,000 minimum.

How big is a 1 carat emerald cut?

An emerald cut is a rectangular step cut with long, flat facets and cut corners. It shows broad flashes of light rather than the scattered sparkle of a brilliant cut. Measurements below come from IGI-graded lab-grown stones in our supplier feed, October 2026.

Center	Face-up size
1ct emerald cut	about 6.6–7.3 mm long, 4.6–4.9 mm wide
1.5ct emerald cut	about 7.7–8.2 mm long, 5.3–5.6 mm wide
1ct round (for comparison)	about 6.4–6.6 mm across

A 1 carat emerald cut is a little longer than a 1 carat round is wide, but much narrower. Compare millimeters, not just carats, and check the outline on your 3D render.

Buying tips

• Clarity: VS1+. Step cuts have large open facets, so they show the inside of the stone more openly than brilliant cuts. VS1 is our floor; ask to see the stone before production.
• Ratio: most 1 carat emerald cuts in our supplier feed run about 1.39 to 1.53 length-to-width. Lower reads wider, higher reads slimmer.
• Color: step cuts can show body color more than brilliant cuts. If color matters to you, compare an F with a higher color grade on your quote.
• Size up: see 1.5 carat emerald cut prices and 2 carat emerald cut prices.
