One of our passions at New World Diamonds is helping to promote a sustainable future through our creation and sales of lab-grown diamonds. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, you have surely heard of the global climate crisis we are facing.

How Diamonds are Graded on Color
While all diamonds are sparkly and beautiful (gemstone diamonds anyway), they are not all created equal. That’s why the GIA established the four C’s of grading diamonds: cut, carat, clarity, and color.

While things like carat (the total weight of the diamond) and cut are easier to decipher, you may be confused as to what the color means — especially when it comes to white diamonds. In this blog, we’ll explain all about how diamonds are graded based on color to help you better understand this aspect of the diamond grading process. This is true for both lab-grown diamonds and Earth-formed diamonds, as they are graded in the exact same way.
