What’s that you say? A 2 carat stone? You’re looking for a big fat whopping 2 carat stone? Do you have any idea how much that would cost you? Don’t you know that a 2 carat diamond solitaire will set you back in the region of not one but several thousand dollars!…Well let us all breathe a sigh of relief and thank those Russian scientists who in their noble quest to further laser technology, stumbled across cubic zirconia, possibly the best man-made gemstone ever that allows those of us who do not have thousands of dollars to spare, to get our hands on a 2ct solitaire engagement ring at a fraction of the price!

Depending on its cut, the size of the stone that graces a 2ct cubic zirconia solitaire engagement ring will vary. A 2 carat round-cut stone is approximately 8.2mm in diameter whereas a 2ct princess-cut, asscher or cushion-cut stone being more squarish and flat in shape appears smaller at 7.5mm. Elongated cuts like the pear/ tear-drop and marquise can appear larger with dimensions of 10mm by 6.5mm and 12mm by 6mm respectively.

Note that a 2 carat CZ does not appear to be twice the size of a 1 carat CZ when viewed from above as would be the viewing angle for most admirers, and this is because of the difference in relation between size and weight. Imagine a cube that weighs 1g for example. If you double the size of the cube by increasing all three of its dimensions, rather than doubling its weight, you actually increase it 8-fold! (Consider how a Rubix cube is constructed to visualise this). Thus in order to double the weight (which is the transformation occuring between a 1 carat cubic zirconia solitaire engagement ring and a 2 carat one) the increase in the stone’s actual size is quite marginal.

‘Lena’s Promise Ring’ shown here is just such an example of a 2ct CZ engagement ring and features a boldly sized stone flanked by an intricate 14 carat white gold pattern that reaches halfway around the band – just enough to impress but not to overwhelm.

The center stone is approximately 2.25 carats. The band is approximately 1.5 mm at the back, and the ring itself weighs approximately 4.6 grams.


Or how about this whopping CZ solitaire that makes a big impression not just because of its magnificent 2 carat round-cut centre stone but also because of its gleaming extra wide yellow gold band.

This gem of a piece certainly is quite unique as far as engagement rings go. For sale by ‘Jewel Roses’, the 9.5mm diameter stone is securely held in place by 6 prongs and is sure to be noticed whereever you go.


This lovely piece known as the ‘Ballerina’ by the world-famous jeweller Swarovski is exclusively designed and completely hand crafted “in house” from beginning to end.

Fitted with a round-cut Swarovski crystal of 2ct, this cubic zirconia solitaire engagement ring simulates a ‘D’ color diamond which would appear colorless to the naked eye and VVS1 clarity which is almost flawless. Priced at under $500, it is a great high quality CZ engagement ring that is sure to melt the heart of the target of your affections.

Dreams are made of these stunning engagement rings. Just imagine, the two of you strolling on the promenade in the early evening. A gentle sea-breeze wafts your skin and cools you from the heat of the afternoon. You’ve been planning to propose after dinner but the time seems right just now. Ignoring the crowds around you, you drop to one knee and pull out a stunning 2 carat cubic zirconia solitaire engagement ring that wows the crowd.
