The black diamond captivates with its mysterious intensity and unique depth. Like its white counterpart, it belongs to the diamond family and is distinguished by its dark color, which gives it a bold and elegant character. The black diamond brings strength and modernity to every creation.
Origin and characteristics
Black diamonds are found primarily in Brazil and the Central African Republic, where they form naturally under extreme geological conditions. Their composition differs slightly from that of white diamonds: in addition to carbon, they contain graphite and hematite, elements that give them their characteristic dark hue.
