I am loving...

... pinkish brown diamonds.

 

[diamondfan]

Not too shabby at all!!!

I would like one for a rhr for sure, since I am not a big fan of yellow on me.

 

[MonkeyDog]

Me too! Me too! I have always wanted a cool, pale pink diamond but I am really liking the brownish-pinks lately. I think one reason I am turning away from the pales/brights is because when I saw some in person they reminded me of "pink ice" CZ from back in the day. I don''t want anyone mistaking my real pink for "pink ice," lol!

 

[Ninama]

This one is called a brown-pink... but it looks really rich and warm to me. I guess there's a big difference between pink-brown and brown-pink. It's 6.32 ct at more than $100K per ($650,000).

A brownish pink 3.05, also from Amgad...

 

[Ninama]

I posted this little trinket a few months ago and it''s still listed on eBay for $1550. Not a world-class gem, but I love the color and the flatness.

I desperately want the 1.12 and 1/2 moons. It''s only... oh... $15,000 out of my budget.

It''s beautiful, Nebe. I''d like to see range of PB/BPs on the hand - to see how they look on different skin tones. All of these rings have halos. I imagine PBs could sort of dissapear without the contrast.

I think lightning bright, colorless diamonds are WOW - I love them. But there''something about the subtlety of these. Kind of stealth glamour.

 

[Ninama]

Oh geez. There''s nothing stealthy about this BP baby...

The Star of the South, 128.8 carats - valued at $94,000,000

 

[Diamond*Dana]

Yes, they are truely gorgeous pieces...sigh

 

[Ninama]

[Ninama]

I think they should call these pale PB/BPs "Fancy Nude" diamonds...

 

[BlingItOn]

OOOOoh!!!

I''m just a huge fan of all fancy colored diamonds. So thanks for starting this thread and posting so many beautiful pinks Ninama!

Top one is GIA fancy intense orangey pink pear and the bottom is GIA fancy deep brownish orangey pink (a little over a half carat).

Oh, yummy! I love the orangey ones... they look so juicy.

I'm totally sucked into the mystique of perfect pinks.. but the pinkish browns seem almost attainable, price-wise. I did find.... however... this uncertified 1.01 ct SI-1 orangey pink pear for $7680 (as far as I can tell from the website, it's not enhanced):

 

[Ninama]

This 1.14 ct brownish pink (from Amgad) is darker than I would go for, but I think it would make goreous RHR. Maybe set east/west.... something like the Paolo Costagli "Florentine" ring.... omg.

Perfect pinks - ahhhh such a wide range depending on your taste

What is your perfect pink - straight pink, intense pink or purplish pink?

The color on this one is pretty, but obviously something doesn''t seem right since it doesn''t have any kind of report. And the price, if it''s truly natural, wow, but I think it is probably too good to be true

Ohhh you have great taste - I agree this would look great in that setting!

 

[kroshka]

Since you like orangey pinks - here is a pic of one that was offered to a friend of mine, however if you look closely it was quite peppered with inclusions, so he passed.

 

[Ninama]

I''m making myself crazy...

Fancy Pink Brown Radiant, 1.49 ct, SI2 - GIA certfied. $7,450

 

[kroshka]

That one looks quite pretty and I like the cut!
