Why choose a black diamond?

Black diamonds have increased in popularity over the last few years, and it’s easy to see why. Their dark, bold colour makes a huge statement, as well as being modern and timeless. In our Black Diamond ring range, we merge beautiful black diamonds with our exquisite jewellery designs to create a range of stunning pieces that are both bold and beautiful.

Let’s dive into everything that makes these diamonds so captivating and why they might just be the perfect choice for your next piece of jewellery. 

What Are Black Diamonds? 

Black diamonds, often called “carbonados”, are a unique form of diamond characterised by their opaque, black, inky appearance. Unlike conventional colourless diamonds, they’re polycrystalline, meaning they’re made up of many small diamond crystals fused together. Natural black diamonds form under high pressure deep within the Earth, and their dark colour comes from either graphite, pyrite, or hematite scattered throughout the stone.

And Are Black Diamonds Real Diamonds? 

Yes, black diamonds are 100% genuine diamonds. Natural black diamonds (carbonados) are a rare variety found in only a few locations worldwide. 

Why Choose a Black Diamond?

Black diamonds are a coloured diamond and are a kind of paradox. They're real, though some people can't believe these black precious stones are natural because of their unique colour, as they don't do the one thing which makes diamonds captivating - sparkle.

In fact, black diamonds absorb light rather than refract it, and they don't sparkle like other diamonds. Despite this, people continue to be captivated by black diamonds, and so are we at Diamond Heaven. Black diamonds are a gorgeous colour that works stunningly with both traditional and contemporary designs and are the perfect choice for wearers that want to stand out from the crowd.
