5 carat diamonds: what to expect
A 5 carat diamond is exceptional: a stone of this size is rarely seen outside fine jewellery. It looks about 71% wider than a 1 carat stone of the same shape and shows around 192% more surface from above, even though it weighs five times as much.
How big is a 5 carat diamond in each shape?
Carat measures weight, not size, so the same carat weight looks different in each shape. These are the typical measurements of the 5 carat natural diamonds in our stock today:
| Shape | Typical size | Available | From |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round | 11.0 mm | 621 | $67,074 |
| Oval | 13.4 x 9.4 mm | 236 | $66,024 |
| Cushion | 11.0 x 9.0 mm | 238 | $51,686 |
| Square cushion | 9.8 x 9.4 mm | 61 | $66,061 |
| Elongated cushion | 11.6 x 8.9 mm | 142 | $51,686 |
| Emerald cut | 11.6 x 8.1 mm | 171 | $57,283 |
| Princess cut | 9.4 mm | 53 | $64,678 |
| Radiant | 11.1 x 8.7 mm | 135 | $74,087 |
| Square radiant | 9.6 x 9.3 mm | 23 | $74,087 |
| Elongated radiant | 11.3 x 8.6 mm | 98 | $77,376 |
| Asscher cut | 9.3 x 9.1 mm | 32 | $95,524 |
| Marquise | 17.5 x 8.9 mm | 33 | $72,502 |
| Heart shaped | 11.7 x 10.4 mm | 98 | $66,996 |
| Pear shaped | 15.1 x 9.4 mm | 215 | $49,200 |
Choosing a 5 carat diamond

5 carat diamond prices
Every stone at this size is close to unique, so price varies widely with colour, clarity and cut; our team is happy to help you compare.
Natural or lab grown?
A natural diamond is formed over billions of years and each one is rare; many buyers value that origin. A lab grown diamond of the same grades costs far less. Today the lowest priced 5 carat diamond in our stock is $49,200 natural, against $1,542 lab grown. Compare 5 carat lab grown diamonds.
