The colour of a diamond is graded on a sliding scale from D (colourless) to Z (light yellow or brown) and refers to how much colour the diamond contains. Colour differences can be very subtle and it is difficult to see the difference between say an E and an F. When directly comparing diamonds for color, most consumers are unable to detect a difference unless they are at least two or three color grades apart. Yet colour can ultimately come down to personal taste.
Confused about diamonds? Purchasing any piece of diamond jewellery is enough to give anyone a headache. Trust is the most important consideration, but who do you trust?
