COLOURED DIAMONDS
Exceptional colour. Enduring significance.
Natural coloured diamonds are formed through rare geological conditions that alter the crystal as it develops. The result is a spectrum ranging from vivid yellow and pink to blue, green and exceptionally scarce red.
COLOUR & INTENSITY
The character of every shade.
Hue, tone, saturation and distribution determine how colour appears within the stone. Diamonds within the same colour category may differ considerably in luminosity, balance and visual presence.
CUT & PROPORTION
Shaped to concentrate colour.
The cut must strengthen and distribute colour while preserving brilliance and harmonious proportions. Radiant and cushion cuts often concentrate saturation, while oval, pear and other shapes create a more individual expression.
ENDURING VALUE
Distinction beyond the colour grade.
Only a limited category of coloured diamonds may be relevant to an important collection or long-term acquisition. Exceptional beauty, substantial size and sustained international desirability must come together within the same stone.
Its importance must therefore be assessed individually rather than inferred from colour intensity alone.
RARITY & SIGNIFICANCE
Scarcity differs with every colour.
Red, blue, pink and green diamonds belong to the rarest categories. Yellow diamonds occur more frequently, yet stones combining pure, intense colour with important size and quality remain exceptional.
The significance of each diamond depends upon the particular combination of hue, intensity, scale, clarity and cut.
