About Fancy Yellow Diamonds

Natural yellow diamonds, also known  as "canary" diamonds" have been increasing in popularity for decades. Yellow diamonds  are the most commonly purchased fancy colored diamond of them all. They are brilliant in color, classic, and the most affordable compared to other fancy colored diamonds.

Yellow diamonds are naturally made through the presence of nitrogen atoms in the diamond's crystal structure, which give the diamond its yellow color.

Yellow diamonds range in color from a pale yellow hue known by the GIA as light yellow (Y to Z range), ascending to fancy light yellow, fancy yellow, fancy intense yellow fancy vivid yellow. The more intense and pure the color, the more valuable the diamond. In addition to a yellow diamond's intensity, it is equally important that the color should have a pure hue, without traces of brown, orange or green. 

      

They can also have secondary hues, such as brown, green or orange, which can impact their value and desirability.

When we are purchasing yellow diamonds no matter the color intensity we make sure they are a sweet "pure" yellow color and are well cut for maximum brilliance!
