A range of jewelery designers are offering 'imperfect' diamonds engagement rings, which can be raw, speckled with shades of gray or colored with hues like brown or pink:
Diamonds have long represented"strength and a union" because they were considered to be the hardest stones in the world, said Marion Fasel, an editor and jewelry writer. They first came into fashion among royalty, popularized in 18th-century England by George III's wife, Queen Charlotte, Fasel explained.
"When it's not white, it's considered an imperfection," said jewelry designer Julie Stark over the phone. Her studio, Point No Point, based outside of Seattle, specializes in black and"salt-and-pepper," or gray-speckled, diamond rings." champagne diamonds weren't considered very valuable because they had a color to them," she said, using a name often given to light brown-yellow stones.
This has changed in recent years, with Emma Stone and Ariana Grande wearing rings that incorporate pearls, Elizabeth Olsen sporting an emerald, Britain's Princess Eugenie wearing a 20-carat orange-pink sapphire, and Katy Perry revealing a ruby design. As well as unconventional stones, Batnick Plessner's customers also expressed growing interest in alternative settings that weren't"just a traditional solitaire," she said, adding that the brand's selection doesn't"feel too-on-the-nose" bridal.
