Colored diamonds (pink/yellow)

[iluvmydog]

Hi -

I am an obvious newbie here, and had a question about colored diamonds in general.
I know that color, ct, clarity, cut all make a huge difference but -
are pink and yellow diamonds typically more when comparing to a clear diamond?

I know we are comparing apples to oranges - but take my diamond in my e-ring for instance
that I posted about last night. Based on its improper cut, I could probably only get
$2000 at most for it - and it is 1.01 ct., H color, VS2, brilliant round cut. (But depth
is too shallow.)

If I wanted a colored diamond in the same size or even half the size - how much,
on average are we talking??

Thanks!

Hi-

Most natural fancy colored diamonds are the same if not more than white diamonds because of their rarity. The actual color of the stone has a lot to do with that...nice pinks are very expensive, blues also are expensive, reds also, yellow is more common and less expensive, but not cheap...

These can be had, but if they have nice color they won''t be cheap.

All the best,
