Coloured diamonds – also referred to as “fancy diamonds” – are a rare and mesmerising type of natural diamond found in a spectrum of remarkable shades. In the world of diamonds, rarity often determines value, and fancy coloured diamonds are far less common than traditional white diamonds.
Only around one in every 10,000 diamonds naturally develops with a fancy colour, making them some of the most prized and sought-after gemstones available. These diamonds occur in a wide variety of colours – from popular pinks and yellows to the exceptionally rare blues, greens, oranges, and purples.
Unlike colourless diamonds, which are valued for their lack of colour (graded on the GIA’s D-to-Z scale), fancy coloured diamonds become more valuable as the depth and vibrancy of their hue increases. These diamonds sit beyond the Z scale, with the most vivid examples being especially rare and valuable.
There are 12 primary colour categories, over 90 secondary hues, nine intensity levels, and more than 230 potential colour combinations. Many fancy coloured diamonds have blended tones due to secondary hues such as grey, brown, or red. The most desirable diamonds are those with rich, vivid colouring, strong saturation, and minimal dilution.
Among these, natural fancy orange diamonds stand out for their warm, fiery tones and exotic appeal. High-quality natural orange diamonds — especially those with intense colour and even tone — are exceptionally rare and highly prized in the world of coloured gemstones.
One of the rarest examples is the “Pumpkin Diamond” – a 5.54-carat vivid orange stone famed for its deep hue and auction-record price, celebrated for its intense saturation.
Fancy orange diamonds are unique within the world of coloured diamonds. Their spectacular orangey hue comes from trace amounts of nitrogen combined with structural anomalies within the crystal lattice, which together produce a rich, warm tone.
This colour spectrum ranges from soft peach to deep mandarin. Some stones may carry secondary hues like pink or brown, though pure vivid orange diamonds are among the rarest and most coveted. Their radiant colour exudes energy and individuality unlike any other fancy diamond.
In jewellery, orange diamonds deliver dramatic visual impact. Their vibrant brilliance and warm tones make them perfect centrepieces in engagement rings and standout accessories, pairing beautifully with both white and yellow metals.
Grading coloured diamonds requires a specialist approach due to the complexity of hues and intensities. The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) is the foremost authority on diamond grading and uses a combination of printed references and master stones to assess colour.
Unlike white diamonds, which are graded for their lack of colour, fancy coloured diamonds are graded for hue and intensity. Orange diamonds are graded particularly closely, evaluating the balance of hue, tone, saturation, and the presence of secondary colours.
Key grading factors include:
