When people think of diamonds, the most common thing to pop into their minds are colourless diamonds (white diamonds). Obviously colourless diamonds are the most common & most popular to buy, but not for long.

Coloured diamonds are slowly making their way into pieces of jewellery & being classed as “excellent alternative investments” and the “trendiest asset class to invest in”. Last year the collection of Argyle Pink Diamonds made their way into Kensington Palace to be displayed as some of the rarest & most beautiful diamonds ever to be seen. Another coloured diamond to make it to the news last year was the 12 carat Martian Pink diamond which sold for an astonishing $17.4 million.

The price of pink diamonds has increased by 443% over the past 10 years. With this being said; pink diamonds cost millions, meaning it is only a fortunate few who can actually take these diamonds home. The majority of pink diamonds are sold at auction, making them a rare (and very expensive) find.

Buying an engagement ring is a challenging task and one that may seem impossible. Buying an engagement ring is a very special task, it’s the symbol & celebration of the future a couple will share together. An engagement ring traditionally holds a diamond or multiple diamonds and can also feature precious gems such as emerald or topaz. When buying a diamond engagement ring it is important to research & discuss the diamond cut, colour & clarity as these three factors will determine how brilliant your engagement ring is. Many people mistake the cut of a diamond for the shape when infact the cut is the lines cut into a diamond to reflect light & make it sparkle. The colour can vary from a ‘D’ all the way down to a ‘Z’ and ‘Z’ is the most yellow. A ‘D’ colour diamond is colourless & is the rarest, most beautiful colour grade to buy. The clarity references the natural internal flaws of a diamond, for example if a diamond had a clarity of ‘IF’ that is short for ‘internally flawless’, meaning there are no visible marks inside the diamond to corrupt light play which creates sparkle. Who said buying an engagement ring was simple?

The ‘Martian Pink’ is an extremely rare 12 carat pink diamond that is so adored that it sold for $17.4 million (£11.1 million) in Hong Kong on Tuesday 29th May. The name ‘Martian’ came from the celebrity master jeweller Harry Winston who was so impressed that the Americans had landed on Mars in 1976 that he decided to look into his inventory & find a rough diamond that would more than likely be pink. After cutting the diamond to perfection, Harry Winston unveiled the most intense pink diamond  he had ever seen or cut before. The current owner of the ‘Martian Pink’ wanted the diamond to be sold in Hong Kong where it would demand a higher price. The buyer of this beautiful rare pink diamond is anonymous & placed the winning bid over the phone, he/she must be extremely proud to own such a rare & beautiful diamond.
