The first
color is actually described as the adjective while the latter is in the noun form. For example, the modifying color of an orangy
yellow diamond ring is orangy whereas the primary
color is
yellow.
The
diamond ring in the above-mentioned example will be primarily
yellow in
color with a subtle orangy tint. In some cases, the
color of fancy
color diamond rings may be split in equal percentages. If that is the case, then the
color of the
diamond ring will be listed as two separate nouns like Orange Yellow.
Fancy
color diamond rings that come with pure
colors are extremely rare. As a
result, they are a bit more valuable than other fancy
diamond rings. The
GIA (Gemological Institute of America) recently stated that there are just four fancy red colored
diamonds in the earth, which means that the price of fancy red color
diamond engagement rings will be a bit higher.
