The black diamond represents mystery, modern elegance and depth of feeling, whilst white gold brings luminosity and refinement. This unconventional choice reflects a confident personality and a commitment that goes beyond classic conventions.

A black diamond offers a bold, contemporary aesthetic whilst retaining the exceptional hardness of diamond (10/10 Mohs). Its deep, mysterious brilliance appeals to those seeking an original engagement ring that stands apart from traditional designs. Paired with white gold, it creates an elegant contrast between the dark stone and the luminous metal, perfect for an unforgettable proposal.

Yes, a black diamond is a genuine natural diamond composed of pure crystallised carbon. Its black colour comes from inclusions of graphite or haematite. It shares the same exceptional hardness as a white diamond (10/10 Mohs) and the same chemical composition.
