The Timeless Allure of Argyle Pink Diamonds
At The Classic Jewellers, we are honored to showcase one of the world’s most extraordinary and rare gemstones - the pink diamond - sourced from the renowned Argyle Diamond Mines in Western Australia. With a rich history of exclusivity, these breathtaking gems have become a symbol of love, luxury, and investment.
The Mystery Behind the Pink Hue
Unlike other diamonds, the beautiful pink hue of pink diamonds has always been a bit of a mystery. Most diamonds get their colour from trace elements, but pink diamonds owe their blush to a rare distortion in their crystal structure, caused by the intense pressure they endure during formation. This natural process changes the way the diamond absorbs and reflects light, creating the unique pink shade that seems to "blush" when you look at it.
The rarity of pink diamonds significantly influences their value. While white diamonds are more abundant, pink diamonds make up less than 0.1% of the world’s diamond supply, making them incredibly precious.
A Legacy of Rarity and Prestige
Argyle pink diamonds have long been symbols of royalty, luxury, and wealth. Today, most pink diamonds come from the Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia, which has produced over 90% of the world’s supply of pink diamonds.
Since the mine closed in 2020, these gems have become even more rare and valuable. What makes Argyle pink diamonds even more fascinating is that their exact cause of color is still unknown. This element of mystery only adds to their charm, making them some of the most sought-after diamonds in the world. For those fortunate enough to own an Argyle pink diamond, it represents not only a piece of natural beauty but also a wise investment, with prices consistently appreciating over time.
The Argyle Grading Scale and Colour Spectrum
Argyle pink diamonds come in an impressive range of shades, from soft pastels to deep purplish pinks. The Argyle grading scale was specifically developed for natural coloured diamonds, categorizing pink diamonds based on their intensity. This scale includes grades such as "Fancy Light," "Fancy Vivid," and "Fancy Deep," with the highest grade, "Fancy Vivid," showcasing the richest and most vibrant pink hues.
Additionally, Argyle pink diamonds may exhibit secondary tones like purplish pink (PP), pink rose (PR), or pink champagne (PC), further enhancing their unique beauty.
At The Classic Jewellers, we offer an exceptional range of these remarkable diamonds, allowing you to select the perfect shade that speaks to your personal taste.
