Fancy colored diamond wedding rings have become more popular in today’s modern designs. The simplicity of a band with the sparkle of the colored diamonds is appealing to many women. The settings for fancy colored diamond wedding bands are numerous. You can choose a setting that allows you to place several fancy colored stones into it, a three stone setting, or a tension setting that has a solitary stone in it. A fancy colored diamond wedding band can have all of the colored diamonds in a single color or for uniqueness the ring can have different colored diamonds in it. The possibilities are endless.

Fancy colored diamonds are natural diamonds that have trace elements in their composition that create color. For instance, if there is nitrogen present during the diamond formation, the diamond will be yellow in color. If radiation is present during the formation process, the diamond can have either green or blue coloring. The last thing that can affect the color of a diamond is intense pressure. The amount of pressure exerted on the diamond in the formation process causes shades of red, brown, orange, pink, and purple.

Diamonds that are green, red, or purple are the rarest and most valuable. To date there are only six natural red diamonds out in the market. To put the rarity of fancy colored diamonds into perspective, for every ten thousand colorless diamonds that are marketed there is only one colored diamond.

Fancy colored diamonds are found in all areas of the world. Certain regions are known for producing specific colored diamonds. For example, one of the most famous diamonds of all time is the 45.52 carat Hope Diamond found in India in the 17th century. The Hope Diamond is a stunningly deep blue stone that has now become a specimen in the National Gem Collection of the Smithsonian Institute.

Pink fancy diamonds are found primarily in Australia today, though a few are still found in India, Brazil, and Tanzania along with a few other fancy colored diamonds. Diamonds that are yellow in color are found in many countries with the most intense yellows are found in Africa. Those fancy colored diamonds whose coloring resembles the color of a fine cognac are usually found in Africa, Siberia, and Australia.

In the search for the perfect fancy colored diamond wedding band, a person must do their research. Researching both the types of diamonds available and the jewelers who sell them is very important so that you do not get sold a synthetic stone or diamonds that have been treated but are being marketed as natural. It is always best to choose a jeweler that has at least a couple fancied colored diamonds to select from.

The choices in diamond colors are as varied as a rainbow and just as breathtaking. Take a step away from the norm and walk on the side of color and expression. Choose a fancy colored diamond wedding band and wait for the compliments to start rolling in.
