Pink Diamond Heart Ring

Pink Diamond Heart Ring

Diamonds that have been coloured using irradiation treatment have brought stunning diamonds to the market at prices that everyone can afford.

The process of irradiation treatment means that the yellow brown diamonds, which weren’t particularly sought after or valuable, can now be turned into something much more appealling.  From yellows, blues, greens and particularly pink diamonds, these can be turned into fabulous looking pieces of jewellery.

If the ring, pictured to the left, had a natural pink diamond then you could expect to pay upwards of £100,000 for it.  As it is this particular piece retails at less than £5,000!
