Pink Diamonds


Pink diamonds are truly one of the world's best kept secrets. In a range of stunning hues and intensities, from a very intense purplish pink to a blush pink champagne, these diamonds are so rare most people will never see one.
The diamonds are mined in the far north of Western Australia, at the Argyle Diamond Mine, where the world's only intense pink diamonds are found.
Kimberley Fine Diamonds has one of the finest collections of loose pink diamonds in Australia which can also be handcrafted into individually designed pieces to ensure your rare diamond purchase is displayed in a wholly unique fashion.
Natural fancy coloured diamonds are very rare and expensive. Pink is one of the rarest and most desirable colours. The Darya-i-Nur diamond is the largest pink diamond in the world at about 185 carats.

Quality for quality, fancy pink diamonds are more expensive than ordinary near-colourless ones. We have seen astronomical prices quoted for pink diamonds, but we manage to source small numbers at reasonable prices. Most pink diamonds, even enhanced ones, are more expensive than white ones of similar quality. There is quite a variation between different shades and hues of pink. Although some of the pink diamonds we have seen have been intensely coloured, some colours are definitely more attractive than others.
Most pink diamonds are only very delicately coloured, from barely perceptable to medium pink, but a few are intensely coloured. The "Tinted Pink" in the ring shown above is a very subtle colour. The stone on the right is more of a medium pink.
This stone was one our favourite colour of pink at the time. The heavy inclusion looks bad in our photograph, but it possibly helped to display the stone's colour. In any case it sold very quickly. Pink diamonds are truly one of the world's best kept secrets.
