I would think so ... I mean, while I say that I haven’t seen tint in my diamond in the mall, it really doesn’t mean anything unless I know I’m in the exact same lighting as you are ... oh and yes, I refer to a slight buttery color when talking about diamond color - it is definitely not “yellow.”
There is no doubt that it is lighting lighting lighting ... there is also a noticeable (to me) tint in an I color (do not mean it looks yellow). I don’t think you can expect to never ever see the tint in an I, but I realize that might not be what you’re seeing either.
If you’re in a tinted room and you see the same tint in your diamond that you usually don’t see, I think it’s safe to say it’s the lighting.
Sorry, I wish I could be more helpful!
You mentioned that to you there is a noticeable tint in an I. What about in an H? My last stone was an H and I never noticed a tint, but it was also a 1.23 and my current I is a 2 carat. I’m wondering if I were to have gotten a 2 carat H instead of an I if I would still a tint sometimes. And if so, what color would I need to go up to in order to not see a tint.
Curious to hear what you and any others think about this!
