Pink Diamond Guide
One of the rarest diamonds among all the fancy-colored diamonds.
Let's take a deep dive into its origins, different levels of intensity, and how it looks in different jewelry settings.
1. Origins
Most often found in the Argyle diamond mine in Western Australia as well as other sites like India, Brazil, Russia, South Africa, and Canada. For every one million carats of diamond produced at Argyle only one carat will be of high quality.
2. How does it get its color?
The exact cause for the color is still not confirmed adding to the alluring nature of the diamond.
How the pink diamond gets its pink color is a mystery to gemologists. Unlike other fancy-colored diamonds whose color is derived from their impurities, the pink diamond doesn’t contain any. Some theories have arisen stating their color might likely be caused by the pressure the diamond undergoes while other theories are based on the seismic shock that affects the molecular structure.
3. Intensity levels
The grading of diamonds is done according to the intensity and strength of the color.
Pink being the primary hue there are secondary hues like purple, brown, or orange.
Grading the intensity of the diamond is not easy for an untrained eye.

4. Diamond price
The price can range from less intense to more intense pink diamonds from $10,000 to $7000,000 per carat.
The main factors affecting the price are intensity and carat weight. As the size and intensity increase so does the price.
