Paris: The Natural Diamond Council (NDC), in partnership with Choron Group and the Fancy Color Research Foundation (FCRF), has unveiled a groundbreaking report celebrating fancy colour diamonds. Released to coincide with Paris Couture Week, the Fancy Colour Diamond Report casts a global spotlight on these exceptionally rare and natural gems.

This is the first comprehensive report of its kind, offering in-depth insights into fancy colour diamonds through the lens of gemmologists, collectors, auctioneers, and luxury retailers. It explores the geological formation of these stones, the complexities of colour grading, evolving value trends, and the unique market dynamics that define their desirability.

David Kellie, CEO of NDC, remarked, “Fancy colour diamonds represent the pinnacle of individuality and rarity. Each gem is a striking symbol of nature’s awe-inspiring beauty. At a time when bold creativity and vibrant elegance are in demand, this report serves as an essential guide for press, retailers, and enthusiasts, curated through our extensive network of experts.”

The report also maps out key global sources of fancy colour diamonds — spanning Canada, Botswana, and Australia — and delves into the artistry of cutting techniques that prioritise enhancing colour above carat or clarity to maximise brilliance.

Roy Safit, CEO of FCRF, commented, “Despite global uncertainties in the luxury sector, the fancy colour diamond market has shown remarkable resilience. The data reveals a measured, strategic repositioning, underscoring both the market’s maturity and the enduring appeal of vivid colour diamonds.”

Anshul Gandhi, CEO of Choron Group — a global leader in fancy colour diamond manufacturing and trading — added, “This is a niche segment of extraordinary rarity that demands deep expertise in both craftsmanship and gemmology. At Choron, we leverage decades of experience to support collectors, investors, and luxury brands across the full spectrum of fancy colour diamonds.”
