About Black Diamond Earrings
When you are shopping for black diamond earrings, you need to forget everything you learned about shopping for colorless diamonds. Black diamonds are real diamonds but they don't sparkle. They have an inky dark color that is essentially opaque. So the 4Cs don't really apply.
The black color is caused by graphite inclusions or, more commonly, enhancement by a safe form of irradiation and heat. Gemvara offers enhanced black diamond earrings because enhanced black gems have better color and fewer inclusions, making them as durable as colorless diamonds.
When judging a black diamond, look for even color but remember that black diamonds that owe their color to natural inclusions can have patchy color. Because their inner landscape is turbulent, it is not unusual for black diamonds to have minor surface inclusions and polishing lines.
Black diamonds generally weigh a bit more than colorless diamonds: a one-carat black diamond will be smaller than a one-carat colorless diamond.
Because all Gemvara earrings are made to order, we can hand-select fine-quality black diamond to perfectly suit your design. Gemvara is the world's leading source for black diamond jewelry: we sell more black diamonds than colorless ones.
What is the meaning of black diamond in the language of gems? Black diamond jewelry says you are not like anyone else. Black diamond studs are classic but also very unique.
Black diamond earrings are most often crafted in white gold or platinum, although black diamond in yellow or rose gold is even more unusual for those who like to forge their own path. Silver is also an option if budget is a concern.
Clean black diamond earrings with mild dish soap: use a soft brush behind the gems where dust can collect.
Gemvara's fine quality black diamond earrings are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.
