Why Are Brown Diamonds Gaining Popularity in Engagement Rings?

Are you looking for something unique yet timeless for your engagement ring? Brown diamonds are emerging as a popular alternative to traditional colorless diamonds. These gems, primarily sourced from Australia's Argyle mine, get their rich hue from natural pressure during formation rather than chemical reactions.

Available in champagne, cognac, and chocolate gradations, brown diamonds symbolize love and energy while reportedly strengthening relationships. Though they sparkle less than colorless diamonds, their growing popularity stems from their distinctive appearance and affordability compared to other colored diamonds.

For maximum impact, brown diamonds shine best when paired with colorless diamonds in settings other than solitaires. Set in yellow gold, they create a classic look, while white gold or platinum offers a more contemporary feel. As demand increases, these diamonds may become more valuable, making them both a meaningful and potentially wise choice for engagement rings.

What Is a Brown Diamond?

The colour gradations of brown diamonds at BAUNAT
Various continents mine brown diamonds of all shades, but most come from the Australian Argyle mine. Brown diamonds do not get their colour from a chemical reaction, as with other coloured diamonds and precious stones, but from the transformation of the crystal lattice due to pressure during the formation process.
Different colours of diamonds
Brown diamonds have different colour gradations:

  1. Champagne
  2. Cognac
  3. Chocolate


All gradations are richly coloured. The darker the diamond, the more expensive it is. The only question is which you prefer.

The Special Significance Of a Brown Diamond

As with all coloured precious stones, brown diamonds have certain characteristics. The precious stone is reportedly full of love and energy and is supposed to strengthen the bond with the person to whom you give the brown diamond. Brown diamond engagement rings also protect the mutual relationship and ensure a strong mind, preventing negative influences from affecting it.

The Value Of a Brown Diamond

Brown diamonds are generally some of the less expensive coloured diamonds because their champagne to brown colour means the precious stones sparkle and shine less than lighter coloured or colourless diamonds. And yet, they are still very popular. The growing trendiness could affect the levels of supply and demand and result in increased prices. So, you had better not wait too long before buying your brown diamond.

Combine a brown diamond with colourless diamonds to make it really stand out
Butterfly-shaped jewellery with brown and orange diamonds from BAUNAT
Brown diamonds are pretty much timeless and have a subtle appearance. The colour will stand out even more when combined with a colourless or orange diamond, like in a halo setting. Any setting can be used, however, we don't advise a solitaire ring, because it is less radiant. Set in a yellow gold ring, you will have a conservative and classic overall appearance. White gold or platinum create a more modern and glamorous look.
