Hi,

Here are two emerald cut diamonds, one is a yellow diamond, the other white. Looking at the top down pattern, is there a concern on how the yellow emerald cut pattern is diff then the white ? Thanks

Hi - The cut criteria considerations when purchasing a fancy coloured diamond are not as crucial as when purchasing a colourless diamond.
Fancy coloured diamonds have their own demands for the diamond cutter, in that the cutter isn't trying to produce the same effect that is sought after in colourless diamonds (fire/brilliance/etc.).
In the case of fancy coloured diamonds, the main goal is to preserve and enhance as much of the natural colour of the diamond as possible. Therefore, the cutter must endeavour to cut the diamond to assist light entering to produce the most intense display colour.
In the end, the goal when cutting a fancy coloured diamond is to bring out the most colour, and the shape that appeals to your eye is really dependant on personal preference.
So no, there is not a need to be concerned - it's just a matter of aesthetic preference.
Hope this helps

Colourless diamonds are cut to best reflect light whereas coloured diamonds are cut to best retain colour.

Thank you adn/chrono. I sort of felt that way, color is priority.
