Don't think you can buy diamonds just cut at your size.
Diamonds are very rare!
The yearly world production of cut rarest diamonds with
Color: Exceptional White + (D)
Clarity: Loupe Clean (IF)
Weight: from 1 to 1.39 Carat,
is less than 900 Carat per year
That means that - all together - there are about 750 stones avaible only!
To produce these 750 diamonds, the mining companies have to dig more than 800,000,000 Ton of Kimberlite.
(Kimberlite are the rocks in which rough diamonds are found)
That makes the prices of rough and cut diamonds expansive and explains also the rareness of them on the market.
