WHAT IS CARAT?-The carat is an i'm
aginary weight that expresses the firm
ness of gold, or the proportion of pure
gold in mass of metal thus, an ounce Of
gold is divided into twenty-four carats
and gold Of twenty-five carats fine is gold
of which twenty-five parts out of twenty
four are pure, the other two parts are
silver, copper or other metal; the weight
of four grains, used by jewelers. in weigh,
ing precious stones and pearls, is some
times called diamond weight the carat
consisting of four nominal grains, little
lighter than four grains troy, or seventy
four and one sixteenth carat grains being
equal to seventy-two grains troy. The
term of weight carat derives its name from
bean, the fruit of an Abyssinian tree.
called kuara. This bean, from the time
of its being gathered, varies very little in
its weight, and seems to have been, from
very remote period, used as weight
for gold in Africa. In India also, the
bean IS used as a weight for gems and
pearls.
