Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Pink Diamond?
Pink diamonds are a rare and valuable type of colored diamond that exhibit a natural pink hue. Unlike other colored diamonds, which get their color from chemical impurities (like nitrogen in yellow diamonds or boron in blue diamonds), the exact cause of the pink color in diamonds is still a mystery. It's believed to be due to a distortion in the crystal lattice structure during the diamond's formation under immense pressure.
How Rare are Pink Diamonds?
Pink diamonds are incredibly rare. It’s estimated that for every 10,000 white diamonds, only one pink diamond is found. Their scarcity makes them significantly more expensive and sought-after. As a result, they have become a symbol of luxury and exclusivity, attracting collectors and investors alike. The rarity and stunning beauty of pink diamonds not only enhance their market value but also make them a timeless choice for special occasions.
Are Pink Diamonds a Good investment?
Yes, pink diamonds are often considered a good investment due to their rarity and increasing demand. Prices for pink diamonds have risen significantly in recent years, particularly after the closure of the Argyle mine. Collectors and investors view them as a secure, long-term investment. Their unique beauty and historical significance also add to their allure, making them not just a financial asset but also a cherished heirloom.

Key Features of Pink Diamonds:
- Rarity: Pink diamonds are among the rarest colored diamonds in the world. The Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia produced around 90% of the world’s pink diamonds until its closure in 2020, which has increased their scarcity and value.
- Color Grading: Pink diamonds are graded based on the intensity of their color, ranging from Faint to Fancy Vivid. The more intense the pink color, the more valuable the diamond.
- Price: Due to their rarity and high demand, pink diamonds are significantly more expensive than white diamonds or other colored diamonds.
- Investment: Many people view pink diamonds as an excellent investment, particularly since the supply from the Argyle mine has ended, making them even more desirable in the market.
- Other Sources: While the Argyle mine was the primary source of pink diamonds, they can also be found in Brazil, Russia, and a few other locations, but Australian pink diamonds are the most famous.
