This book is written in an-easy to-understand manner with over ninety photographs depicting a diverse selection of fancy colors. It gives the investor or collector a ready grasp in understanding what gives diamonds their value and desirability. It can be said that each colored diamond has a one-of-a-kind color that is unique because no two natural colored polished diamonds are exactly alike in facet placement, symmetry, angles, and color saturation. Their unparalleled beauty can be compared to viewing a Monet or Rembrandt. In the hands of a diamond polisher each colored diamond is awakened as if from deep sleep through the manufacturing process which brings the polished diamond to life.
