How big of a loan on your pink diamond can you get?
Out of the 20 million carats of diamonds mined each year, only 0.1 percent are pink. This rarity means the value of pink diamonds is very high, so your loan value would be high as well.
Pink diamonds are always in demand and even increase in value over time. They can have different hues and intensities, which is another factor that influences their value.
Pink diamonds have become more popular over the last 20 years, making their price skyrocket. Several very expensive pink diamonds have sold at auctions in recent years.
The most expensive gemstone ever sold at an auction was a pink diamond. In 2017, the famous Pink Star diamond sold for $71 million. The Pink Star is an oval-shaped 59.6 carat diamond.
What makes a diamond pink?
The science behind pink diamonds is very mysterious. The hue of most fancy-colored diamonds can be explained easily. Yellow diamonds contain traces of nitrogen and blue diamonds contain the element boron.
But there are no impurities in pink diamonds, so scientists have been struggling to understand why they’re pink. Scientists have speculated that the color is the result of a molecular difference within pink diamonds.
