Diamond Color Gradings
Color Hue VS Tone
Left: Green hue diamond Middle: Brown hue diamond Right: Gray hue diamond
A diamond can come in various hue colors, such as brown, green, yellow, gray. etc., depending on where the diamond was mined from. When GIA or AGS grades a diamond's color, they grade it by its tone (strength of color) but not its hue color. As a result, diamonds of the same Color grade may look visually different, with some appearing darker than others. Unfortunately, this is not shown on the GIA or AGS certificate, and requires visual inspection under diffused white light. Vendors often masks the hue color by showing the diamonds under direct lighting conditions only, which masks a diamond's body hue.The most common diamond hue color is brown, which most consumers purchase unknowingly. In JANNPAUL, we only accept diamonds with yellow hue, which is the brightest hue color and the least noticeable to the eyes.
