The allure of the Fancy Grey diamond
Naturally coloured diamonds have a complex geological origin, in which the presence of hydrogen alters their crystallisation to create grey hues. This second-hand solitaire ring features a natural 1.11-carat gemstone cut in a brilliant cut. Its VS2 clarity grade guarantees excellent internal clarity. The distinctive Fancy Grey colour offers a natural alternative to the traditional white diamond. The piece is crafted from 14K yellow gold.
Design and jewellery craftsmanship
The setting is characterised by its delicacy and lightness. The polished yellow gold ring has been designed to recede visually, allowing the centre stone to take centre stage. The grey diamond is held in place by a 4-prong setting forming an open setting. This raised, airy design allows for maximum light penetration through the stone’s culet. The gem’s sparkle is thus fully showcased in everyday wear.
Why choose this second-hand solitaire ring
Acquiring a certified coloured gemstone is a sign of a discerning aesthetic sensibility. The jewellery market rarely offers Fancy Grey diamonds of this weight without the added costs of bespoke craftsmanship. This pre-owned piece provides access to a stone weighing over 1 carat with a rare colour. The appeal of this purchase lies in the direct appreciation of the gemstone itself.
