Black leads this emerald; the octagonal outline simply gives it the space to be seen properly.

See this exact gemstone in compatible SARATTI settings.

This Natural Black Diamond presents an evenly dark face-up appearance, with its confirmed black colour of natural origin expressed through an opaque body and polished, subtly metallic surface lustre. Bright edge reflections contrast with the dark centre, giving the diamond a defined and architectural first impression.

Fashioned in an octagonal shape with a step-cut arrangement, the diamond uses clipped corners, broad planes and a large central table to create controlled reflections across its surface. Its elongated proportions form a crisp silhouette, while visible natural surface and internal characteristics contribute to the individual character of the stone.

Weighing 1.24 carats and measuring 7.1 × 5.0 mm, the diamond offers a refined face-up scale for a distinctive ring, pendant or contrasting composition with white diamonds. Its angular outline would pair well with yellow gold, rose gold, white gold or platinum, with a protective bezel or guarded prongs considered for secure wear.

April Birthstone

Diamond is recognised as the traditional birthstone for April. Natural Black Diamonds offer a distinct expression of the diamond family, defined by their dark face-up presence, polished surface reflections and individual internal character.

Diamond Care

Clean with mild soap, warm water and a soft brush. Avoid sharp impact, steam cleaning and aggressive ultrasonic cleaning. Natural Black Diamonds may contain internal fractures, so the setting should be inspected periodically to ensure the stone remains secure.

Design Invitation

The diamond’s dark octagonal silhouette would create a structured centre within yellow gold, platinum or a contrasting white-diamond composition. It may be acquired loose or developed through SARATTI’s bespoke jewellery service as a ring, pendant or individual statement design.

Why we chose this stone

Black at 1.24-carat.

Choose this emerald for black if that is the feature you want the finished jewel to preserve. Its octagonal proportions are supportive rather than distracting, keeping the stone’s strongest quality in control.

Before you decide

Questions worth asking.

Is this the exact gemstone I will receive — and can I see more of it?

Yes. The gemstone shown on this page is the individual stone you are considering — not a representative image from a parcel.

We photograph and film the actual stone and do everything possible to show its color, proportions and character faithfully. Even so, gemstones can respond differently to daylight, warm interior light and different screens.

If you are uncertain, we can provide additional photographs or video and, where useful, reshoot the stone under different lighting or from another angle before you decide.

Can I confirm the gemstone is still available before I proceed?

Of course.

Send us the product link or reference and our concierge can confirm availability before you proceed.

For an important purchase, we would rather confirm first than have you make a decision around a stone that has already been spoken for.

How do I know which setting will suit this gemstone?

The builder presents settings intended to work with the gemstone you have selected.

Before production begins, the pairing is reviewed for proportion, security and suitability.

If we believe another setting, proportion or approach would serve the stone better, we will tell you before anything is made. The setting should serve the gemstone — not simply accommodate it.

What happens after I choose my gemstone and setting?

We confirm the important details with you before production begins.

That includes your gemstone, setting, metal, side stones where relevant, size, engraving and any personal details.

Nothing enters production until the final specification has been reviewed and approved.

Will I see the finished piece before it is sent?

Yes.

Once your piece is complete, it is photographed and filmed with your gemstone set into it.

Those images are sent to you before dispatch, so you can see the finished jewel before it leaves SARATTI.

How long will my piece take?

Made-to-order pieces generally require around three to four weeks from final approval to completion.

A loose gemstone purchased on its own can usually be prepared for dispatch much sooner.

If you are working towards a proposal, anniversary, birthday or travel date, tell us before ordering. We will let you know what is realistically possible rather than promise a date we cannot honour.

How will my order be delivered?

Your order is sent by insured courier with tracking and appropriate delivery security.

The route and carrier depend on destination and value.

Where duties or local taxes may apply, our concierge can explain the available delivery options before dispatch.

Can I return a loose gemstone?

A loose gemstone may be returned within fourteen days of delivery provided it remains unworn, unset and unaltered, with its packaging and documentation intact.

Please contact us before sending anything back so the return can be arranged securely.

What happens once the gemstone has been set?

A jewel created around your selected gemstone is made specifically for you.

Once the final specification has been approved and production has begun, the gemstone and materials are committed to your piece.

That is why we take time to confirm the details with you before making begins.

What if I am still unsure?

Then do not rush the decision.

We can help you compare this gemstone with another, look again at color or proportion, send additional imagery, discuss a setting or simply talk through what matters most to you.

The right stone should feel considered — not hurried.

What happens after I receive my piece?

Our relationship does not end at delivery.

SARATTI provides ongoing care for the jewelry we create, including inspection, cleaning and appropriate maintenance support as the piece is worn over time.

If anything ever concerns you, speak with us before attempting repair or alteration elsewhere.
