Diamond Color

Basically all diamonds are colorless. The quality of a diamond is influenced by its transparency factor. A transparent diamond mostly allows light to pass through it which therefore results in creating a rainbow effect on it. But, necessarily all diamonds are not white, fancy colored diamonds found in hues of pink, blue, band yellow. Red being the rarest of all.
