Pink, purple and red color diamonds considerate to be one of the most extraordinary and unique diamonds in the world, their unusual color and limited availability make them very popular among jewelry lovers. These color diamonds are much rarer than white diamonds and only a very small number of them are being mined each year. . .
To achieve pink, purple and red colors, Diamond Traces turns to the coating process. In this process, a very thin film is placed over the pavilion [link to pavilion] of the diamond which imparts the color to the rest of the diamond. Hence, once the diamond is set, the colored coating cannot be easily damaged as there is no coating on the table [link to table]. The material is less than a millionth of an inch thick and does not alter the diamond’s weight for practical measurement. . .
This process is the perfect solution for people who cannot afford to buy these expensive diamonds, they are less expensive and much more available in the market so you can find them in most shapes and sizes. This alternative can let you afford and own this luxuries jewelry in a reasonable price that will impress everyone, without the need of spending your life savings.
