what is the color of diamond
Another factor that affects a diamonds's apparent color is the color of the mounting itself. Yellow gold makes slight amounts of yellow in a diamond less obvious, while white metal mountings make the color in yellow diamonds more apparent.
Blue diamonds are extremely rare. They generally have a slight hint of gray, so theyâre rarely as highly saturated as blue sapphires. Their color is caused by the presence of boron impuritiesâthe more boron, the deeper the blue. Fancy green diamonds are typically light in tone and low in saturation.
