How Much Is My Red Diamond Worth?

The following factors determine how much your red diamond is worth:

Color: The color of your diamond is assessed using three attributes:

• Hue refers to the diamond’s color: whether red, yellow, pink, etc. Red diamonds often exhibit a purplish or brownish hue, or the red appears as a reddish brown or reddish orange color. While these diamonds are still valuable, red diamonds with the presence of no other hues are the rarest colored diamonds, and thus the most valuable.
• Tone refers to the lightness or darkness of the diamond’s color.
• Saturation refers to the strength or weakness of the color.

Pure red diamonds only exist in the highest saturation and darkest tone, fancy red. Fancy red diamonds fetch the highest prices on the market. Red diamonds with less saturation or a lighter tone are considered pink, reddish brown, or another hue.

Carat: Typically, the greater the carat weight of your diamond, the more it is worth. Most red diamonds are less than half a carat in size.

Cut: Different cuts can maximize the intensity of a color and can alter your diamond’s value.

Clarity: The fewer inclusions on your diamond, the higher its value.

Market Conditions: If the shape and proportions of your stone are in high demand on the current market, you will fetch a higher price.
