D COLOR DIAMONDS

Think of a pure glass of water with no shade of color whatsoever; there you have your visual of a D color, void of any color at all! This is why D color diamonds are highly sought after in the diamond market due to their exceptional purity and colorless appearance. As such, they are considered to be among the rarest and most valuable diamonds available. Top sellers like Blue Nile offer some incredible gems like this 1-carat D color round brilliant.

In technical terms, a D color diamond has a high level of transparency and a low level of absorption when it comes to visible light. This means that when light enters a D-colored diamond, it passes through the stone without being absorbed or scattered, allowing the light to bounce back out of the diamond with maximum brilliance and fire. When cut properly, The diamond's highly reflective and refractive properties combine to create the dazzling, eye-catching sparkle that is so highly prized in diamonds.

Why consider purchasing a D color diamond?

BEAUTY

D color diamonds are completely colorless, which makes them highly desirable in terms of their beauty and sparkle. When a diamond has no color, it allows more light to pass through it, resulting in greater brilliance, fire, and scintillation. A D color diamond if cut properly will light up a room instantaneously. If you want to see a diamond dazzle, look at this diamond 1.5-carat D color from Blue Nile's Astor Collection.

RARITY

D color diamonds are extremely rare and are only found in the top one percent of all diamonds mined. This rarity makes them highly sought after and valuable. Oftentimes, collectors will purchase them and put them away in their safety deposit boxes or vaults knowing that this color is very hard to come by and will only increase in price as time moves forward(no guarantee, but the D color is simply not infinite in supply).

INVESTMENT

Tied directly into the rarity aspect, D color diamonds are considered to be a good investment. As consumers become more knowledgeable about diamonds and investors become ever so interested in finding alternative investments, D colors have continued to gain popularity. This has slowly, yet consistently moved the price up over time. Extremely hard to come by, this is a good spot to park some of that extra $ you won from the lottery! 😋
