Are Red Diamonds Real. The red colour of the diamond comes from a rare deformation in the atomic structure. A red diamond is a pure carbon gemstone featuring none of the chemical impurities that create other kinds of colored diamonds.
If the stone fails all five tests your diamond is likely fake. Red diamonds have the same mineral makeup as colorless diamonds as well. When light passes and bends through it a ruby-like color is reflected.
In fact the worlds largest red diamond is the Moussaieff Red which weighed in at 511 carats and sold for 8 million at auction in 2001.
Of course there are fake diamonds of any color or type. What causes the color is a slight deformity in the crystal lattice of the carbon atoms. There are also some naturally red diamonds that are not purely red in color. LEIBISH specializes in rare and unique natural Red diamonds and fine Red diamond jewelry in addition to a plethora of other fancy color diamonds.
