Buying Engagement Rings - Diamond Colour

Diamond Colour

We hope you find this guide to buying engagement rings helpful but if you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact customer services.

The Diamond Colour Scale

The diamond colour scale runs from D to Z, D is the best with Z being the worst. Only a certified diamond grader can really distinguish between each colour grade as the change in colour is so subtle.

The ideal diamond colour is D which is completely clear and free of any colour, but bear in mind the closer you get to the colour D the more expensive the diamond will be.

Please note that the chart below is applicable to Round Brilliant diamonds only.

Diamond Colour and Engagement Rings

In general we recommend diamond colours D-J for Designer Engagement Rings, if you are within this colour grade bracket you will not be able to see any colour in the diamond, it will appear colourless.

If you are looking for a very high quality diamond for your Engagement Ring we would recommend a diamond colour grade of D-F, but bear in mind that the cost of the diamond increases with the colour grade.
