WHAT IS DIAMOND COLOUR?
A diamond’s colour grade measures the pigment or tint of the stone with clear being the most desirable. The most clear, most desirable diamonds earn a grade of D while the least desirable earn a grade of Z.
D – F (Colourless)
Diamonds in this colour range do not have any visible yellowish or brownish tints. They are absolutely coloureless and rare. The most chemically pure diamonds of the D to Z range. Recommended set in platinum or white gold settings.
G – J (Near Colourless)
Diamonds in this colour range offer exceptional value for money. Their colour is often unnoticeable except by trained graders.
K – M (Faint Colour)
Diamonds in this colour range have a slight yellow tint that is detectable even to the unaided eye. Recommended set in yellow or rose gold settings to make the diamond appear less tinted. (Not carried by Ramzi & Co.)
N – R (Very Light Colour)
Diamonds in this colour range have a noticeable yellow or brown tint. These diamonds are much less valued than higher grades. (Not carried by Ramzi & Co.)
S – Z (Light Colour)
These diamonds appear distinctly yellow or brown but not so coloured to be considered “fancy” coloured diamonds. (Not carried by Ramzi & Co.)
