1 ct is one carat. 1 ctw is 1 carat total weight. Example: diamond ear-rings 1 ctw is about 1/2 carat each ear-ring. Bracelets and rings may have multiple stones. If you are looking at the ring, you want a balance of similar size diamonds, but pay special attention to the weight of the largest diamond. Also, cut and clarity are at least as important as the 3 c (carat). Generally for bracelets, such as tennis bracelets, you want all the stones to be as close as possible to the same size

The norm is 1 ct is on Diamond. The other 1 ctw is smaller diamonds cut and mounted that total 1 carrot. The 1 ct is your best shot. a bunch of cut small diamonds are not a nice a a female would rather have one instead of many littles.

a 1ct diamond is one diamond that weighs in at 1 carat, a 1ctw is many smaller diamonds that all totaled together weigh 1 carat.
ct= carat
ctw= carat total weight

it incredibly is rather teeny, yet how long you have been seeing your gf and your age and earnings must additionally factor into it. My husband began getting me a million/4 ct. diamond studs in white gold at a jewellery shop that enable you commerce up on your rings and get finished value on your commerce. we would make money for a year then i might commerce for the subsequent length. you would be able to desire to continually commence some thing like that. i'm at a million.2 ct (entire weight)now and that's the suited length for me.

1ct diamond is one stone that weighs a carat
1ctw is one carat total weight adding all the stones in a piece adds up to 1 carat but is usually many smaller stones

It's The Same thing.
CT stands for carot. CTW stands for total carot weight. It means the same thing, diffent companys use diffrent terms.

1ct- one big stone

the better quality ring has a better clarity and color.
