2ct Visual Size Guide (Quick Confidence)
A 2.00 ct round stone typically measures about 8.1–8.3 mm across. Ovals and pears often look larger face-up at the same carat weight, while deeper cuts can look slightly smaller. For quick context: a US dime is 17.9 mm, so a 2ct round is roughly about half a dime’s width.
| Shape (2.00 ct) | Typical face-up size (approx.) | Look & coverage note |
|---|---|---|
| Round | ~8.1–8.3 mm | Balanced, classic presence |
| Oval | Varies by ratio | Often looks larger than round |
| Pear | Varies by ratio | Elongates the finger, “bigger look” |
| Cushion | Varies by cut | Soft corners, vintage feel |
| Emerald | Varies by ratio | Elegant step-cut, bold face-up |
Sizes are typical ranges and can vary by cut proportions and shape ratio. Use product details for exact measurements.
