Very few jewelers are aware of the fact that Green colored
diamonds are more rare than Blue diamonds. Every
time that I acquire a green diamond for sale, I get
excited because I know how rare they truly are. I
would have graded this flora-colored beauty a
yellowish-Green as green is the dominant color to the eye,
but this under- grading by GIA is a plus for a potential
buyer. The carbon spots, and remember that Mother
Nature uses carbon as the primary ingredient in making
diamonds, are only visible with magnification and these
images are around 30x, not the 10x standard used for
clarity determinations. You will not be able to see
these carbon spots when you gaze first-hand down through
the table of the rarity. And please remember it is
COLOR, COLOR, COLOR when it comes to these very rare
diamonds, not the traditional parameters that are used to
judge brilliant white diamonds. The yellow facet
flashes are possibly why GIA graded this diamond an
equally Yellow and Green colored diamond, but the
predominant color to the eye is Green, Green, Green.
Spend some green to get some green.
