The Math / Science
The carat weight of a Lozenge Faceted Cut Gem formula used in this calculator is:
Wt = L* W * D * sg * 0.00140
where:
- Wt = Carat Weight of the Gem
- L = Length
- W = Width
- D = Depth
- sg = Specific Gravity of Gem
The weight of the gem is a function the volume and the specific gravity. The volume is estimated base on the gem's shape and dimensions. The specific gravity is dictated by the type of gem. For the specific gravity of different gem, CLICK HERE.
