Where have fancy color diamonds been seen?
Some of the world’s most famous and notorious diamonds are fancy color. Each recognized for their extreme beauty and rarity, fancy color diamonds are associated with some of the most iconic figures in history, from Louis XIV and his precious Tavernier Blue (later re-cut and known as the Hope Diamond) to Catherine the Great and her famous Blue-Green Orlov. Everyone remembers Marilyn Monroe’s beautiful pear shape yellow diamond, the Moon of Baroda, which she wore to promote the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes… And today fancy color diamonds are more visible than ever… Jennifer Lopez’ pink diamond… Heidi Klum’s 10 carat yellow diamond… and of course Halle Berry, who received her 2002 Oscar wearing a pumpkin diamond ring.
