FANCY COLORED DIAMONDS

Rare • Precious • Captivating

Diamonds have been mined and worn in India since the 4th century BC, and were used as a decorative gemstone well before contact with Western cultures. The world's first diamond color-grading system dates back to sixth-century India, but this system was not responsible for the creation of colored diamonds.

The color of a diamond was closely associated with the caste system, and only certain persons in the social hierarchy could own a certain type of colored diamond. This formed an important part of ancient India's class structure and caste system. Rulers, priests, and people of high status in the system were allowed to own diamonds that weren't colorless. Warriors and Land Lords were allowed to wear "Brown Diamonds that resembled the color of the eye of the hare," and merchants were granted permission only to own Yellow Diamonds. Members of the lower levels of society were assigned black or gray diamonds. Kings, however, were free to choose diamonds of any color.

Colorless natural diamonds are classified on the scale from D - Z. At the end of this range is where colored natural diamonds fall (i.e., X-Y-Z range). In this range of colors, diamonds begin to show traces of yellowish or brownish tones. This is the start of the Fancy Yellow Diamond and Fancy Brown diamond scale" is true according to sources.

The diamond color scale ranges from D to Z, with D being absolutely colorless, and Z being light yellow or brown. Diamonds with a color grade from D to F are considered colorless, while diamonds with a color grade from G to J are considered near colorless.

Beyond the J grade, diamonds begin to show traces of yellowish or brownish tones, and this is where colored natural diamonds fall. These diamonds are called fancy colored diamonds, and they come in various colors, such as red (rarest), yellow, brown, blue, green, pink, and more.

The start of the fancy yellow diamond and fancy brown diamond scale is at the end of the colorless range (i.e., X-Y-Z range).

Any diamond with a strong presence of color is known as a Fancy Colored Diamond. Fancy Colored Natural Diamonds are much rarer than their white counterparts and highly sought after for their impeccably rich, beautiful, and sensation colors. They fetch a premium price per carat weight due to high-profile auctions, another factor in their immense awareness and cost.
