pink diamonds

Blush-colored precious stones

Pink diamonds are diamonds with a naturally occurring pink hue, among the rarest and most valuable gemstones in the world.

The color ranges from faint blush to vivid rose, caused by structural irregularities in the crystal lattice rather than chemical impurities.

Most historically came from Australia's Argyle mine, which closed in 2020, making existing stones even more prized by collectors: The pink diamond sold for forty million at auction.
