Most Underrated Color Diamonds

Hands-down the most underrated fancy color diamonds are green and orange diamonds. The greens warm earthy tone just brings something so unique to every diamond. While orange diamonds have a fiery brilliance and edgy style effect. Dive into learning more about these cool color diamonds!

You rarely saw green diamonds carried in stores or even valued in the color diamond industry, up until the engagement of Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez.

J-Lo inspired a HUGE demand for natural green diamonds onto the color diamond industry by her ring being a 8+ Carat Fancy Intense Yellowish Green Cushion Cut.

Green Diamonds have taken the jewelry industry by a storm, and here at Rare Colors we have nearly sold more green diamonds than pink diamonds this year. Pink diamonds have been one of our best sellers for decades, which is a crazy testament to how powerful the J-LO effect is.

Besides the standard green diamonds there is a separate family of chameleon diamonds which I believe is an even bigger wonder of the world, since they change color! Personally, my favorite chameleons are the ones that change to a neon orange color when heat is present! Dive deeper into Chameleon Diamonds by reading the article here!
