Why D–E–F Color Lab-Grown Diamonds Are the Smart Choice

When selecting a white diamond, color is a key factor. The GIA color scale ranges from D (colorless) to Z (noticeable tint). D, E, and F are classified as colorless, offering the highest level of visual purity.

In lab-grown diamonds, the price difference between D–F (colorless) and G–J (near-colorless) is relatively small—especially compared to natural diamonds. This makes choosing a colorless grade a practical way to maximize both quality and appearance without a significant cost increase.

Below is the side-by-side comparison between an F-color Round Brilliant Diamond and a G-color one:

The color grade is particularly important in popular white gold or platinum settings, where any hint of warmth in the diamond becomes more visible. D–F diamonds maintain a bright, clean look that enhances the overall design and reflects light more effectively.

At Surround Art & Diamonds, we use only D–E–F color lab-grown diamonds in our jewelry. This is one reason why our pieces showcase the highest visual appeal and provide lasting aesthetic value for our clients.

Choosing colorless diamonds is a simple, effective way to ensure your jewelry piece looks its best—especially when it doesn't significantly affect the price.
