Indeed, for some gems, such as diamonds, the price per carat can increase exponentially as the gem size increases. Therefore, a 1 carat stone may cost $1,000 while a 2 carat stone may cost $4,000. This means that good quality sapphires and rubies in larger sizes tend to have a much higher price per carat.
