Common Questions About Growing Fancy Color Diamonds

Q1. Are all lab-grown fancy colored diamonds standardized in color?

Many customers misunderstand, believing that because lab-grown fancy colored diamonds are cultivated, their colors can be perfectly controlled and standardized. This is incorrect. Lab-grown fancy colored diamonds grow naturally in a man-made environment, so each one is unique. Finding a lab-grown fancy colored diamond with pure color also requires fate and luck.

Q2. Should one be concerned if a lab-grown fancy colored diamond has fluorescence?

Most people buying white diamonds (colorless diamonds) pay attention to whether there is fluorescence, which is generally considered to be a quality that lowers the price. However, in the world of fancy colored diamonds, fluorescence sometimes does not detract, but rather adds value. Because fancy colored diamonds with fluorescence generally increase color saturation, fancy colored diamonds with fluorescence are sometimes even more popular.
