Color in Fancy Colored Diamonds

All the fancy color diamonds we have here at VMK are accompanied by a Gemological Institute of America (GIA) report, and are all natural color. To understand how colored diamonds are formed, we need to understand how the standard white diamond is formed. Diamonds are formed when pure carbon is put under the extreme conditions of heat and pressure about 90 km under the earth's surface.
