AN IMPRESSIVE COLORED DIAMOND RING
AN IMPRESSIVE COLORED DIAMOND RING Set with a cut-cornered modified rectangular-cut fancy intense pink diamond, weighing approximately 8.77 carats, flanked on either side by a shield-shaped diamond, mounted in platinum and gold With report 13702310 dated 11 July 2013 from the Gemological Institute of America stating that the diamond is fancy intense pink, natural color, VVS1 clarity Accompanied by a supplemental letter stating that the diamond has been determined to be a Type IIa pink diamond. Type IIa pink diamonds are very rare in nature, often have relatively few inclusions and are noted for their homogenous color in the rough. Unlike many other colored diamonds, the color in pink diamonds can not only be caused by impurities, but it may also be a result of the diamond's exposure to heat and pressure during transportation into the earth's crust. Type IIa pinks have been found in a number of mining regions around the world. Historically they were found in India (particularly from the Golconda region) and, in more recent times, most notably from Brazil and Africa. Among famous gem diamonds, the 70.39 carat Empress Rose and the 28.15 carat Agra are examples of Type IIa pinks
