HOW
TO CHOOSE
Even with a deep color, fancy
yellow diamonds showing a strong
brownish tint will lack beauty,
making them ill-suited for jewelry.
Light and beautiful yellows
can sometimes be had at relatively
low prices. It is essential
that the color be distinct when
the stone is viewed face-up.
A fancy-color grading report
should be thought of as proof
of natural color, but it is
important not to depend on the
color terms: View stones with
your own eyes, and select the
one that satisfies you.
The
value of a one-carat-size fancy
yellow diamond of jewelry quality
is approximately US $9,000 for
the stone alone. (2001) |
