BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Fashion Jewelry Old diamond ring

There�s an old diamond ring which my grand mother gave to my mum, and mum is very curious about diamonds, so she wanted to know more about this diamond�

Which type is it?? And what�s the name of that diamond??
Anyone to explain about this...

oh noooo!! Am not able to post the pictures ... Help please!!

Thanks girl, it was very useful to me. Here you are the pictures..

OMG that is gorgeous.

"OLD IS GOLD".It's an unique collection.But as far as my knowledge goes diamonds aren't yellow in color.Your gemstone is called "Yellow Saphhire".

if u not told us the history of the ring, i may just think it is only an expensive diamond ring, but when have a sencond sight, i feel somthing different,rather attractive jewelry.

i think the brand or the name matters little, maybe at that time, it is not a very precious one ,but after years of accumulation,it states somthing,and the value changs.

so just value it and pass it down to your child.

Diamonds come in every color in the rainbow including yellow but that stone does not appear to be a diamond. It could be a saphire but it also could be a pale Citrine or Yellow Imperial Topaz. One way to have some idea is to know what the metal is the stone is set in. A friend who is an antiques dealer pointed this out too me. If the stone is really precious, it should be set in gold and more likely a higher carot of gold.

Here is a link to a page that shows all the colors of Diamonds, they say there have been 300 different colors identified to date.
