Colour
Welcome to the vibrant spectrum of diamond color, the first stop on our journey through the Four Cs. When we speak of color in diamonds, we're not talking about the presence of color; we're actually celebrating the absence of it. The pinnacle of perfection in diamond color is achieving absolute white, making it appear colorless.
To accurately grade a diamond for color, it must be unmounted and compared with pre-graded comparison stones. The commonly used American grading system ranges from D to Z. Picture D as the zenith, reserved for diamonds that are utterly colorless and exceptionally rare—each one a treasure of immense value.
Now, let's explore the range of excellence. Stones in the E to H range exhibit no discernible color to the naked eye, standing as paragons of high quality. At our journey's midpoint, G to H diamonds, we find stones that are exceptionally white and serve as a testament to the fine quality diamonds we proudly use.
As we venture further down the color grades, from I to K, you'll notice subtle hints of color, often presenting as a faint brown or yellow tint. Despite this, diamonds in this range maintain admirable quality, though discernible against the comparison stones. It's the fascinating interplay of nature's hues.
Now, a word of caution: as we descend below K, diamonds may exhibit more pronounced color, veering into shades that are best avoided for their noticeable tint.
But wait, our journey through color isn't just about the absence of it! On our expedition, we encounter some extraordinary diamonds, including natural yellows and captivating cognac-colored diamonds, each a testament to the kaleidoscope of possibilities in the world of diamonds.
So, in the realm of diamond color, from the purest whites to the intriguing hints of hues, our collection celebrates the diverse beauty that diamonds can unveil. Let's continue our exploration through the Four Cs, where each facet brings us closer to discovering the perfect diamond for you.
