Facts About Fancy Color Diamonds (Sourced from GIA)
Only 1 in 10,000 diamonds has a fancy color. Red diamonds are so rare that only a handful are actually known to exist. The most valuable fancy color diamond hues are pink, blue and green. Fancy shapes such as radiant and cushion cut are commonly used to maximize the intensity of the color. The world’s first diamond color-grading system dates back to sixth-century India. The system was based on the country’s ancient class structure. Members of different classes and status levels were only allowed to own and wear diamonds of a specific color, depending on their social class. Diamonds served as a badge of rank and showed the community what your role was.
