Two Treated-Color Synthetic Red Diamonds Seen in the Trade

Shigley - - -- -- -- Two dark brownish red faceted stones, recently submitted to the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory for standard origin-of-color reports, were found to be treat- ed synthetic diamonds. This conclusion was based on observations of: patterns of zoned color, U.V. luminescence, and graining; metallic inclu- sions; and certain bands in the visible- and infrared-range absorption spec- tra. We believe that this is one of the first published reports of treated-color synthetic diamonds seen asfaceted gems. For some of the gemological features desen3ed here, such as visible-grangespectra with sharp absorption bands, this is one of the first reported occurrences in gemquality synthetic diamonds. In early July 1993, a diamond dealer submitted a 0.55- gemological properties indicated that both had been ct dark brownish orangy red diamond (figure 1, left) to color enhanced subsequent to synthesis. the New York office of the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory To date, the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory has (GIA GTL) for a standard origin-of-color report. examined only a very few faceted synthetic diamonds According to the client, this round brilliant-cut stone that were submitted by members of the jewelry indus- had been obtained on memo from a dealer in Bombay, try for a laboratory report (see also the brief mention India.

Christie's Hong Kong Sets World Record for a Red Diamond at Auction
November 25th, 2014 Christie’s Hong Kong Sets World Record for a Red Diamond at Auction By: Tracey Greenstein Christie’s auction on November 25th in Hong Kong was led by several fancy color diamond jewels, but the standout is a striking 2.09 ct, heart-shaped, Fancy Red, SI2 diamond ring by Moussaieff which sold for $2,440,000 price per carat (Christie’s, Lot 2103), breaking the world auction record for a red diamond. Red diamonds are infrequently seen at auctions and this particular stone is exquisite. Compared to the color strength of most red diamonds, this Fancy Red stone bestows a feeling to the buyer that they’ve purchased a true red diamond. Generally, red diamonds do not correspond to what we perceive as ‘red’; often, buyers label red diamonds as a deep or dark pink. Opinions as to what qualifies a diamond as ‘red’ vary considerably because there are so few examples of red diamonds in the market.1 While it is common for red diamonds to have clarity grades in the SI1-SI2 range, this Fancy Red diamond would have achieved significantly stronger results with a higher clarity grade. Red and pink diamonds have similar internal structures and their color is derived from the same origin (a defect in the diamond’s lattice structure), though many argue that their source of color has yet to be verified. The majority of red diamonds come from the Argyle mine in Australia, the world’s leading mine for pink diamonds. Bids and realized prices from The Argyle Pink Diamonds Tender are confidential, so it is difficult to discern the total values of pink diamonds from their mine.
