Diamond Color

Color in diamonds is measured using an alphabetized scale ranging from D-Z. This scale was developed by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). The D color represents the least amount of color a diamond can have, and each successive letter grade down to Z represents a very slight increase of yellow color in the diamond.

As far as value, the less color a diamond has, the more it is worth. The reason for this is that the less color a diamond has, the brighter it will appear. Therefore, D color is the most valuable, and each successive color grade down to Z becomes less valuable.

Color Scale

Diamonds graded from D to F are considered colorless.
This color range is for those seeking "nothing but the best".

Diamonds graded G to I are considered "near colorless" when mounted in jewellery.
This color range offers the best "value" without compromise.

Diamonds graded J to K are considered "slightly tinted" when mounted in jewellery. This color range is "excellent value" when budget is a primary consideration.

Diamonds graded K and lower are attractive when set in yellow gold- pave' style, or in yellow gold prongs or bezels.
