Pink Diamonds
A natural pink diamond is way beyond rare. It is the most venerated diamond in the world and a jewel like no other. It is the holy grail of the natural fancy colored diamonds. To be the owner of a pink diamond is to be the guardian of an unparalleled heirloom; to gaze upon it is to view profound beauty; to give one is to impart a gift that is truly beyond rare.
Exactly what imparts a pink diamond its color is not known and is a topic of continuing debate. The mystery adds a delightful touch to each of this gemstone.
It is thought that the intense pressure beneath the Earth’s surface causes a non-reversible change in the crystal lattice of the diamond causing it to absorb certain spectrum of light and producing color. It is incredible and nothing compares to its color and brilliance, & it is significantly more valuable than its white diamond equivalent.
Pink symbolizes fun, beauty, love and romance. A pink diamond is the perfect romantic gift for your loved one, whether you’re looking to buy pink diamond rings for a Christmas present or the perfect pink diamond engagement ring.
An extraordinary rare 24.78 carat pink diamond, once in the possession of American jeweler Harry Winston, has been described as “one of the greatest diamonds ever discovered”.
The emerald cut diamond with rounded corners and mounted on a silver ring with two flanking shield-shaped diamonds was sold by Sotheby on sixteenth November 2010 for US $46 million (£29 million). This pink diamond became the most expensive single jewel ever sold at auction.
Graded as “Fancy Intense Pink” by the Gemological Institute of America and sold by a private collector, it was not seen on the open market since being bought from Harry Winston about 60 years ago.
“What makes it so immensely rare is the combination of its exceptional color and purity with the classic emerald-cut,” said David Bennett, chairman of Sotheby’s European and the Middle Eastern jewelry departments. “It’s a style of cutting normally associated with white diamonds and one that is so highly sought-after when found in rare colors such as pink and blue.”
Despite its rarity, the diamond remained un-named for all this time. Laurence Graff, of Graff Diamonds who purchased it for the record price named it Graff Pink.
