What Are Strawberry Diamonds?

Published in Pink Diamonds 2 mins read

™ Le Vian® Strawberry Diamonds™ are a specific type of natural fancy color pink diamond that is specially selected by Le Vian®.

These unique and beautiful diamonds get their natural pink color from the intense heat and tremendous pressure they experience deep within the Earth. This geological process is what gives them their distinctive and highly prized hue.

Understanding Strawberry Diamonds

While the term "strawberry diamond" is primarily associated with Le Vian® and their carefully chosen pink diamonds, it highlights key characteristics of these natural wonders:

  • Color: They are pink diamonds, a rare and desirable color in the world of gemstones.
  • Origin: The color is natural, derived from geological processes within the Earth's mantle.
  • Formation: Their unique pink shade is a result of heat and tremendous pressure.

The Science Behind Pink Diamond Color

Unlike many other colored diamonds which get their color from trace elements (like nitrogen in yellow diamonds or boron in blue diamonds), pink diamonds are believed to get their color from structural changes within the diamond crystal lattice caused by immense pressure during their formation. This distortion absorbs light differently, resulting in the pink appearance. The reference specifically mentions heat and pressure as the source of the natural color for Le Vian®'s Strawberry Diamonds™.
