How To Buy A Diamond Ring
The 4 Cs: #2 COLOUR
Diamonds come in a range of natural colours and shades. Whiter diamonds are more rare, so whiter diamonds are more valuable. The alphabet is used as the grading scale for colour starting with “D” (Colourless) and continues all the way down to “Z” (Yellow).
Colour becomes more visible as you move down the alphabet. The best way to see the true colour of a diamond is by looking at it under natural daylight and comparing colour grades alongside each other. Even the untrained eye can see the difference because the human eye is naturally attracted to white colour.
Only about 8% of diamonds in the world are colourless. Most diamonds contain traces of yellow and brown, while many contain other colours such as green, blue, or even sometimes pink. These are known as “fancies” in the trade.

We’re going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you’re entirely independent from that site. But then we are pretty dumb.
I’m getting married this summer so in the middle of planning the wedding and the stag doo and finding this site really useful! I’ve not come across a wedding site designed for guys before.
When I bought her engagement ring, I knew nothing about diamonds and would recommend this diamond guide -http://www.stevenstone.co.uk/diamond-education.php
