What is a black diamond?
Known as a "carbonado", a black diamond is a unique gem that is completely natural and differs from the commonly seen colorless or colored diamonds. Intriguingly, it is believed that black diamonds originated from a meteorite that struck Earth millions of years ago, a celestial gift if you will. This unique gem, with a hardness that falls slightly behind other diamonds, adorns the world from only three locations - Brazil, the Central African Republic, and to a lesser extent, South Africa.
The Ideal Setting for a Black Diamond
The understated elegance of black diamonds allows them to shine in various types of jewelry. They bring a minimalist aesthetic to a necklace or an aura of masculine elegance when set in cufflinks. They form the perfect contrast when set in a white gold or platinum ring, creating a striking balance between the light and the dark.
