The Spectral Colors of Diamond Investment

Fancy colored diamonds are bought almost exclusively for their intensity and distribution of the color. Because of their rarity, they are much more valuable than white diamonds. The richness and deepness of the color is the most important consideration when investing in fancy colored diamonds. The more intense the color, the rarer the diamond is and the more market value the diamond will have. Fancy intense and vivid diamonds hold the highest prices in contrast to fancy faint diamonds. Pink, Blue and Yellow colored diamonds are the most sought after diamonds worldwide.

According to the highly reputable Gemological Institute of America (GIA), very few colored diamonds are valuable enough to carry their certification. Only diamonds of importance and higher value will qualify for GIA certification.

Supplies of rough diamonds will fail to match demand driven by China and India over the next five years due to a lack of new mines.
