White Diamonds vs. Black Diamonds
The eternal battle of the diamonds has been summoned! We love them both, but we get tons of questions from our clients as to the differences between a White Diamond and a Black Diamond.
So, which one is better? Does the price differ? It's time we share with you all we know and love about these two beauties.
White Diamonds
1) COST MORE WHEN COMPARED TO THEIR BLACK DIAMOND COUNTERPART
2) ARE RARER (THIS IS WHY THEY COST MORE)
3) MOST HAVE TINTS OF YELLOW OR BROWN
4) COMPLETELY COLORLESS DIAMONDS THAT FALL IN THE D & E GIA COLOR GRADE SCALE MAKE UP FOR LESS THAN 1% OF ALL THE DIAMONDS IN THE WORLD
5) IS DEF THE MOST POPULAR GEM USED IN JEWELRY AROUND THE WORLD
Black Diamonds
1) THEY ARE BADASS!
2) THEY ARE FORMED IDENTICALLY TO THEIR WHITE DIAMOND COUNTERPART ONLY WITH A LOT OF CHARACTERISTICS INSIDE THE DIAMOND GIVING IT THAT DARK BLACK LOOK
3) QUALITY GRADES FOR BLACK DIAMONDS RANGE FROM A TO AAA QUALITY AND WE ONLY USE THE HIGHEST QUALITY WHICH IS AAA
4) THEY BECAME VERY POPULAR IN THE EARLY 2000S
5) IF YOU ARE A BIG SEX AND THE CITY FAN YOU MAY REMEMBER THAT MR. BIG GAVE CARRIE A 5CT ROUND BLACK DIAMOND RING, CARRIE ASKED "WHY A BLACK DIAMOND?" AND HE RESPONDED "BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT LIKE ANYONE ELSE"
In the end, they are both AMAZING diamonds and it truly depends on your (or your partner’s style). The important thing is that it has a special meaning for the one who wears it.
