FANCY GREEN DIAMONDS
Green Diamonds for Engagement Rings
Natural Fancy Green Diamonds
Natural green diamonds are extremely rare--only a handful are introduced into the market each year. Pure green diamonds are valued more than those which are yellowish-green or gray-green.
Origin
Fancy green diamonds are sourced from South Africa and other parts of the continent. The green color comes from being near radioactive sources during formation. This process takes at least a million years to occur, hence their rarity!Historical Trivia
The most famous green diamond is the 41 carat Dresden Green Diamond. It has a historical record dating to 1722, when a London news-sheet carried an article about it in its 27th edition. It is currently housed at the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen in Dresden and can be viewed by the public.
