But, probably you have lesser knowledge about the ‘types of diamonds’, their composition etc. No, this isn’t boring- you could impress your girl with some smart talks about diamonds! (Tips of advice- don’t make it too lengthy!).

Why do we call a diamond a ‘diamond’? Confusing? The word diamond is derived from the word ‘adamas’ in Greek, which means ‘invincible’. Diamond possesses an atomic structure (an uncommon one) that makes it one of the hardest natural ‘matter’. Thus, it holds true to being ‘invincible’ and so it’s rightly, called the diamond. No wonder, this translucent beauty is damn expensive!

Diamond Rings Special for Some One

Scientifically there are 4 types of diamonds-the type 1a, 1b, 2a and 2b. Typically diamonds are made up of carbon, but most of the diamonds in the market have certain impurities in them (which are usually added).

• Type 1a: 98% of the diamonds in the market are of type1a. All the type 1 diamonds contain nitrogen. Type 1a contains nitrogen as a cluster in the carbon lattice of the diamond. They absorb blue light, thus making the diamond appear pale yellow or brown in color.
• Type 1b: These diamonds have the nitrogen evenly spread throughout the carbon lattice. The absorb green light and blue light, which gives the diamond a darker color than the type 1a diamond. Less than 0.1% diamonds are of type1b.
• Type 2a: Type 2 diamonds contain no or very few atoms of nitrogen. The purest of the diamonds. They contain no or tiny tots of impurities and most of them are colorless for this reason. However, an imperfect carbon lattice may sometimes attribute to its blue, yellow or brown color.
• Type 2b: these diamonds do not contain nitrogen but still absorbs red, orange and yellow light. Why? Because it contains traces of boron. It appears a magnificent blue in color.
