How Are Blue Diamonds Graded?
Among the 4C’s, the cut is one of the important aspects to grade colourless diamonds, for coloured diamonds, colour plays an important role. It is difficult to evaluate the blue diamond with its colour; however, the valuation depends on three aspects, hue, tone, and saturation.
Hue: It is the visible colour of the stone. As with blue diamonds, secondary colours like green or grey are part of it. The more dominant these secondary colours; the stone colour will be affected. Pure blue diamonds are highly expensive.
Tone: Tone is defined by the weight and strength of the stone. Lighter and stronger stone is more expensive and rare. A dark colour will resemble a black diamond, whereas light colour will not be vivid. Therefore, you must choose a stone that is neither too dark nor too light.
Saturation: This refers to the intensity of the stone. The more deep and vivid the diamond stone looks, the more expensive it is.
While blue diamonds are an excellent option for engagement rings, you can even go for blue sapphire or aquamarine diamond stones. They look incredible when set in white gold metal.
