Thinking About Buying a Blue Diamond Engagement Ring?
![]()
Blue diamonds come in two distinct varieties: natural, and man-made. Natural blue diamonds are very expensive and rare. These are highly sought after, and very hard to find. The diamond is blue due to a chemical reaction which happens within the diamond. It is usually caused by traces of boron found within the diamond or large amounts of hydrogen. Naturally, the blue shade can range from a blue tint to a very deep blue.
The deeper colored diamonds are worth the most money. Most people would rather have a consistent, deep hue, than a uneven, multicolored blue diamond.
A blue diamond engagement ring will cost you much more than a traditional diamond ring-try ten to fifty times for the same quality stone! This is why most normal people cannot afford a natural blue diamond.
This is where man-made colored diamonds step up. Diamonds can be color-treated using a process which combines irradiation and intense heat. This makes an affordable beautifully colored diamond which is still affordable. The biggest difference between this and a naturally colored diamond is that the natural one is worth a lot more.
If you find a jeweler who is willing to sell you a natural blue diamond, be suspicious. These diamonds are so rare that most jewelers have never even seen one up close. Make sure to do your due diligence before buying a ‘fancy blue diamond’.
The diamonds put through these processes can be natural or man-made. A man made diamond is considered a synthetic stone. It is grown in a lab. They can be given the same impurities as a natural blue diamond, giving it the same look. To grow diamonds involves inserting carbon dioxide into hot plasma which simulates the high temperatures which natural diamonds are formed in.
So, why would you even want a blue diamond engagement ring? Well, they are rare, so you will have a different ring that everybody else. Blue diamonds are a status symbol, they show someone has wealth, style, and determination. You can get a blue diamond and then have it put into any engagement ring setting you want.
