If you’ve ever tried buying
men’s colored diamond rings, you may have realized that the price of different
colored diamonds varies by a huge margin. This is because the pricing of natural
colored diamonds is primarily based on the
color it carries, and the
4 C’s that should be taken into account. Apparently, the price of a
colored diamond is directly proportional to the intensity of
color it has. In simple terms, a deep
colored orange diamond will be priced much more than a
stone that has comparatively fainter tone, hue, and saturation.
As all natural
colored diamonds come with a certificate of authenticity, it is often considered a valued investment option. In fact,
colored diamonds are compact and stronger, they have a better size to value ratio, they do not need registration as an asset, and they often garner a higher return after a couple of years – all these facts surely make it a worthy investment. That is why
orange diamonds with an intense
color saturation are longed and desired more by
gems and
diamonds collectors.
Interestingly, the recent trends and demands for
men’s colored diamond rings have led to an increase in the price of
orange diamonds. As per the auction house records of Christie’s, they sold a 14.82 carat Fancy Vivid
orange diamond of
VS1 clarity featuring
pear cut for a whopping price of $2.4 million per
carat. The overall price of the
orange diamond was about $36 million.
