2 Carat Diamond Engagement Rings, Lab-Grown and Natural

30 pieces

“Choose lab-grown if you want the look. Choose natural if the piece is meant to be passed down to someone you love.” Trax, at the jewelry store on 47th Street

30 engagement rings with a 2 carat center, most of them lab-grown, in nine shapes from radiant to Asscher.

A lab-grown marquise and a radiant made nearly two in three of the rings sold here in the year.

A 2 carat diamond ring here holds a center of 2 carats, some a little over. Most of the centers are lab-grown diamonds and a few are natural, in radiant, round, oval, emerald cut, marquise, pear, Asscher and princess shapes, set as solitaires, halos, three stone rings and bridal sets. Most are 14K gold, some 18K and a few platinum.

Buyer's guide

How to choose a 2 carat engagement ring

Pick the shape first, then grown or mined, the grades, her gold and her ring size

Pick the shape first. At 2 carats the shape decides how big the stone looks, and a marquise, oval or pear looks longer on her finger than a round of equal weight. Then choose grown or mined. Most rings here hold a lab-grown center, graded VS or better and mostly E or F color. Take 14K in the gold she wears most, and measure a ring she already wears before you order.

How big: how big a 2 carat diamond looks on her hand

A round of 2 carats measures about 8.2 mm, close to half the width of a size 6 finger. The long shapes spread the same weight further, so a marquise, oval or pear looks larger than a round, and a princess or Asscher looks smaller. Every ring here holds a center of 2 carats or a touch over. Read that center carat, not a total, since three natural rings here carry more carats of side diamonds than the center weighs. The diamond size chart draws each shape to scale.

The shape: radiant, marquise or emerald cut at 2 carats

Start with the radiant or the marquise, together nearly three in four of the rings sold here in the year. A radiant is faceted like a round inside a rectangle, and its clipped corners take a knock better than sharp ones. A marquise gives the longest look for the weight, and each point wants a prong. An emerald cut or Asscher is step cut, flat facets like a hall of mirrors that show the inside of the stone. Round sparkles most.

Lab or natural: lab-grown vs natural 2 carat diamonds

Both are real diamond, the same carbon crystal on the same grading scales, one grown and one mined. Most rings here hold a lab-grown center, and all but one ring sold in the year was lab-grown. Those grown centers are all VS or better and most are E or F, white and clean at this size. A natural 2 carat is the rarer stone, and the four here are a K color radiant, a fancy yellow radiant, a cushion and a round in a platinum bridal set. The lab-grown and natural article goes deeper on both.

Color and clarity: what grade to choose for a 2 carat diamond

At 2 carats a tint or an inclusion shows more than at one carat, so the grades count. E and F look colorless, and a VS stone looks clean without a loupe. On a step cut choose VS1 or cleaner, and every emerald cut and Asscher here is F color, VS or VVS. On a natural center, H or I color and SI2 clarity make room for a bigger stone. Ask about cut, symmetry and fluorescence too, since they decide how it lights up.

Gold and size: 14K or 18K, the band and her ring size

For a ring worn every day take 14K, as nearly every ring sold here in the year was. Most come in yellow, white and rose. The bands are slim, mostly 1.5 to 2 mm where a listing says. Nearly every ring comes in sizes 5 through 8 with the half sizes. Slip out one of her rings for a jeweler to size, or quietly ask a trusted friend or her family. Get it right before you order, because a ring made or resized for her is final. Some are made in her size after the order, and the listing gives the wait. Pick her wedding band with it.

Face up is the usual size of each shape at 2 carats, and a listing's own measurements settle it. The Trinity pear counts as lab-grown by its title. Sold is net of returns.

Questions we get in the store

Are these real diamonds, lab-grown or natural?

Yes, every center here is a diamond. Most are lab-grown rather than mined, and four are natural. The pink radiant is lab-grown, Fancy Vivid Pink in color, and the yellow radiant is natural. Ask in the live chat if a listing leaves it out.

Does a 2 carat engagement ring come with a certificate?

Six listings here name an IGI report on the center diamond, among them the marquise and the radiant sold most in the year. For any other ring, ask in the live chat whether its center carries a report before you order.

Is this ring in stock, and how soon does it ship?

Some rings are on hand and some are made in her size, so ask in the live chat first. A ring on hand usually ships in two to five business days, and one made in her size needs two to three weeks before it ships.

More questions we get

How big is a 2 carat diamond on her finger?

About 8.2 mm across for a round, close to half the width of her finger at size 6. A 1 carat round is about 6.5 mm, so twice the weight adds only about a quarter to the width, and the diamond size chart draws both.

Which shape looks biggest at 2 carats?

The marquise looks biggest for its weight, about 13 by 6.5 mm at 2 carats, with the pear and the oval close behind. A princess or Asscher faces up smaller than a round, because more of its weight sits deep in the stone.

How wide is the band on a 2 carat engagement ring?

Slim. Where a listing states the band, it runs 1.5 to 2 mm wide, and one marquise with side diamonds sits on 3.3 mm. For a ring that does not say, ask in the live chat for its width.

Can I see a 2 carat ring in person before I buy?

Yes. Ask in the live chat whether the ring you like is at the store on 47th Street, and set a time to see it. Some rings here are made in her size after the order, so ask before you come.

Can I return a 2 carat engagement ring?

Yes, if unworn and unaltered, within fourteen days of delivery. Clear it in the live chat, then ship it on the insured label we send. Five percent restocking and the label come off the refund. Rings made in her size, resized or custom are final.

How much does a 2 carat engagement ring cost?

Each listing prints its own price. The center sets most of it by shape, grade and origin, and gold and side diamonds add the rest. For anything not listed, use the live chat first, or call or text 212-872-9692 from 10 AM ET.

About this collection
ABOUT THIS COLLECTION

About 2 Carats in the Center: Most Lab-Grown, a Few Natural

Want a 2 carat center in a shape or setting not shown here? Start a custom engagement ring on the ring builder, and we will be in touch about it.

How big is 2 carats? A 2 carat round is about 8.2 mm across, about a quarter wider than a 1 carat; a 2 carat oval runs about 10 by 7.5 mm and a marquise about 13 by 6.5 mm, so the long shapes look larger for the weight. Our diamond size chart shows every shape.

Lab-grown or natural? Both are diamond, the same carbon crystal, and your eye cannot tell them apart; our guide to lab-grown and natural diamonds explains how a jeweler does. Step up to 3 carat engagement rings, pick a shape at oval engagement rings, radiant cut engagement rings or emerald cut engagement rings, see the Mirabella pear rings, all lab-grown diamond engagement rings, or every engagement ring for women.

Questions about 2 carat diamond rings

Does 2 carats mean the center or the whole ring? On this page it is the center stone. Total carat weight adds every stone, so a halo raises it without changing the center; read the center carat on the listing.

Which shape looks biggest at 2 carats? The marquise, with the oval and the pear close behind; a princess or cushion faces up a little smaller than a round of the same carat.

How big does 2 carats look on her finger? A size 6 ring finger is about 16.5 mm across, and a 2 carat round covers about half of it. Long shapes set along the finger cover more of it.

Can a 2 carat diamond be set east-west? Yes. A few rings in our case already sit across the finger, among them the east-west marquise rings on marquise engagement rings. Any other east-west ring is a custom order: a deposit starts the 3D design, and nothing is made until you approve. The desk gives the timing.
