1. Established values
Coloured diamonds are internationally considered to be well established. They are collected and traded in high society for hundreds of years and also available as an investment for the broader public for several years. Over the past 30 years, prices continued to rise steadily.
2. Portability
Diamonds are small; they weigh almost nothing and are very portable. Large amounts can therefore easily be transported and concealed. You can easily store your entire diamond portfolio in a jewel or a safe.
3. Long-term growth
Research shows that the appreciation of natural coloured diamonds dominated the diamond market the past 30 years. Auction results also demonstrate the power of coloured diamonds. They reach regularly selling price records for the highest price per carat ever paid at auctions for a diamond or a jewel.
4. Multifunctional investment category
Coloured diamonds as an investment have multiple functions. You can buy a 5.00 carat fancy intense yellow diamond as an investment and let it set into a diamond jewel at the same time.
5. Security
Unlike colourless diamonds, coloured diamonds have no fixed price. Their market value is determined by prices at auctions. The rarity of the colour and the fact that there is no new supply in the market makes a price increase. Even the Argyle mine, which manufactures the world’s most valuable pink diamond, has publicly announced their probable closure in 2018.
6. Value
The value of an asset is determined based on supply and demand. Coloured diamonds are the rarest gemstones on earth. Only 0.01% of natural diamonds are fancy coloured. The offer is therefore very limited. Many Hollywood movie stars have discovered coloured diamonds and show them off in public. The result is a substantial increase in the market demand.
7. Durability
Coloured diamonds are very durable. After they are created in unimaginable circumstances, kilometers deep under the earth’s surface, they can withstand just about any situation.
8. Rarity
Coloured diamonds are among the rarest commodities. They are found in only a handful of diamond mines and only a small percentage of the entire production. Some colours, fancy intense violet for example, are considered so rare that most companies have never seen this tint.
9. Privacy
Diamonds can be easily stored in custody without obligation to ever publicly share any information.
10. Breathtaking
It’s no secret that coloured diamonds take your breath away. No matter who you are or the the kind of interest you have in diamonds (to wear or to invest in), everyone is mesmerized by the brilliance of coloured stones. As a direct result of their beauty and rarity, coloured diamonds are these days regarded as exceptional investment opportunities.
