Champagne Diamonds
Last week I went to look for champagne diamonds for the company, when I met a guy that didn’t know what I was talking about. I was shocked. How can that be?
Isn’t champagne Diamonds a common term that everybody knows?
I have decided to look into it and see what the net has to say about it and found that there are quite a lot of variations in the Champagne Diamonds family.
The name has a few options, sometimes they are called brown or cognac diamonds or “natural diamonds.”
As for the color, there are a few kinds of color gradings anywhere from light champagne color down to a dark rich yellow. It says that the variance in color is due to trace elements that were in the carbon as it compressed in the vein of Kimberly rock over thousands of years.
The diamond champagne is a very earthy, sensual diamond that at the same time has quite a luxurious flair to it. Currently this type of diamond is very chic and many couture ring designers are combining them with white diamonds to make unusual and attractive wedding and engagement ring designs.
There is another great reason to buy this kind of rock: Champagne Diamonds are conflict free. This is due to the fact that they come from a vein of rock in East Kimberly, in Western Australia. Australia is in fact the largest supplier of these champagne diamonds and the largest miner of them down under is Argyle mines.
So if you get to Australia and see some Champagne Diamonds, send me a picture, I’ll put it here in my blog!
