About the gram and the stone
The gram
The gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to one-thousandth of a kilogram. It is the everyday unit for food labeling, postage, jewelry, and laboratory measurements. The 2019 SI redefinition fixed the kilogram (and therefore the gram) in terms of Planck's constant, ending more than a century of dependence on a physical prototype.
The stone
The stone (st) equals exactly 14 pounds (about 6.35 kg). It is still widely used in the United Kingdom and Ireland to state body weight, even though it is no longer legal for trade. The stone was originally a real stone used by merchants as a counterweight on balances; its weight varied by region and trade until standardized in the late 19th century.
