Diamond Color

In nature, the absence of any color is very rate as most diamonds contain tiny amounts of nitrogen.
The untrained eye may not be able to detect these minute variations of color, but these distinctions affect
the rarity and ultimately the value of your diamond.

The color of every diamond used is skillfully determined by a GIA/EGL Certified Gemologist. Color is then rated according to a precise scale, running from “D” (colorless) to “Z” (saturated). If a stone has a borderline color classification, it is assigned the lower rating. Past “Z” a diamond’s color is considered “fancy.” Fancy colored diamonds are very valuable and, correspondingly, are graded by very different parameters.
