Fancy Colour Diamonds

Fancy Colour Diamonds
              
Only one in every 10,000 diamonds possesses Natural Colour and is referred to as a fancy colour diamond. For this reason, fancy colour diamonds are purchased almost exclusively for the intensity and distribution of the diamond's colour. Criteria considered when purchasing a white or colourless diamond, such as cut proportions and clarity, are less important when purchasing a fancy colour diamond.

Colour
 
Colour intensity, the deepness or richness of colour, is the most important consideration when purchasing a fancy colour diamond. The more intense the colour, the rarer and more valuable the diamond will be.
             
Fancy Colour Diamonds are graded in order of increasing intensity from Faint, Very Light, Light, Fancy Light, Fancy Intense, Fancy Vivid, Fancy Dark, and Fancy Deep.
