Loose coloured diamonds run the gamut in shades from pale yellows to rich blues and greens. These coloured diamonds can result from natural events such as the presence of elements like nitrogen, boron, or hydrogen while the stones are being formed. Radiation can also contribute to different shades. Given that the conditions under which these diamonds form in nature are so rare, these fancy varieties tend to be more costly because they are much less common.
Find Low Prices on Loose Coloured Diamonds
Naturally occurring loose coloured diamonds are not the only ways in which these stones can be found. Laboratories can treat loose colourless diamonds to enhance them. Among the techniques they can employ is irradiation, which bombards the stone with subatomic particles or gamma rays. Buyers need to exercise some caution when buying loose coloured diamonds, as techniques like the application of coatings can be difficult to detect. Coatings can be applied to low quality or synthetic stones, and if they are not disclosed to the buyer, are considered fraudulent. When buying loose stones, customers should ensure that they are only considering certified stones that are evaluated and guaranteed by an independent organization. This ensures that the prices being requested by dealers are justified by the quality of the stone.
