Jewelers continue to use the momme to measure the weight of cultured pearls; for this purpose it equals exactly 3.75 grams (about 0.132 ounce) or 18.75 carats. The unit is commonly pronounced "mommy" in English. Unit Definition (clove) The clove is an old English unit of weight. A clove is usually considered equal to 1/2 stone or 1/16 hundredweight; that's 7 pounds (3.175 kilograms) by the modern definition of the stone, but in the past the clove varied from 6.25 to 8 pounds.
