Round Cut Black Diamond Gemstone.
Round Cut Black Diamond Gemstone.
Black diamonds are opaque diamonds with black colour that come in only one colour-intensity: Fancy Black, unlike the characteristic of colour in other colour diamonds. Only two other diamond colours come in just the Fancy intensity, and these are White and Red Diamonds. Fancy White diamonds are also similar in that they are opaque, although Red Diamonds do not share this characteristic. Other colour diamonds are found in a variety of colour intensities ranging from Faint to Fancy Deep/Dark. Unlike other colour diamonds that receive their colour from geological impurities such as nitrogen, hydrogen, and boron, black diamonds owe their colour to the inclusion of graphite and random clustering throughout the diamond. Over the years, black diamonds have grown greatly in terms of popularity due to celebrities who have been seen sporting black diamond jewellery.
Of course, one of the most famous black diamonds is the fictional engagement rings that Mr Big gives Carrie Bradshaw in the wildly popular tv show Sex and the City. When he presents her with the black diamond halo ring, he tells her that he has given it to her because she is 'not like anyone else'. In the real world, fashion icon Carmen Electra received a black diamond engagement ring from rocker Rob Patterson, and black diamond earrings have been spotted on the likes of Katherine Heigl, Angelina Jolie, Cate Blanchett, Evan Rachel Wood, Jennifer Lawrence, Lauren Conrad, and Sarah Jessica Parker, to name a few.
Gwenyth Paltrow is famous for having worn a chain-link pave black diamond bracelet at the Emmy's in 2011, and Angelina gave a pair of pave black diamond serpent cufflinks to husband Brad Pitt.
Black diamonds are among the most popular colour of coloured diamonds. In fact, in recent years as the popularity for non-conventional engagement rings has grown the demand for these beautiful gems has gone through the roof.
