The Origins and Versatility of the Black Diamond
More Pure and compatible than colorless diamonds
Black diamonds are mostly found in Brazil and in the Central African Republic and despite only recently being discovered by the main stream jewelry makers, collectors and the general public, they have been around for many years. The Darkness of black diamonds come from either tiny cracks throughout the stone that contain graphite or sulphides or by colorless or white diamonds being exposed to extreme heat. A black diamond that is harvested from the ground and is naturally dark is extremely rare and therefore much more expensive. Although most black diamonds are treated with heat, to find the purest black diamonds harvested from the ground, look for one that is advertised as untreated or GIA (Gemological Institue of America) Certified and you will have some of the most precious stones available.
When searching for the best black diamonds to fit your needs, be sure to evaluate the 4 C's. (Color, Clarity, Carat, and Cut) This will get you the highest quality in black diamond rings.
(1) Black diamonds are crystallized carbon just like colorless diamonds so when choosing color be sure to look for the glossy finish with no cracks.
(2) Clarity refers to the stone's luster. Again make sure the diamond has a sparkling glossy surface. AAA is the best rating grade.
(3) Carat always refers to the weight of the diamond. Black diamonds are heavier than the traditional colorless diamond so a 1 carat black diamond will be smaller in size than a colorless diamond.
(4) The Cut (very important) does not refer to the shape of a diamond but rather to the stone's proportions and polish. When a diamond is mined from the earth it simply looks like a piece of glass so it is cut with precise facets. Most black diamonds have a cut of sixteen facets and their surface will be smooth with no cracks.
