A diamond is truly one of the most remarkable gemstones known to humankind. For many years, a diamond has been treasured for its unique characteristics and exquisite beauty. One of the most remarkable qualities of a diamond is the colour. Even though a colourless diamond is considered extremely rare, natural fancy colour diamonds are in a category of its own.
Imagine holding a beautiful diamond in the palm of your hand. What is the very first characteristic you envision the diamond to have? For most individuals, the very first thought that jumps to mind is a sparkly colourless gemstone you usually find on an engagement ring.
Diamonds can occur in almost all colours of the spectrum, with yellow being the most common of all the fancy coloured diamonds. Although all natural fancy coloured diamonds are extremely rare, none are more so than the red diamond.
