What Makes a Diamond Yellow?

Yellow diamonds owe their color to nitrogen atoms present during the diamond’s formation.
These atoms absorb blue light, allowing warm golden tones to shine through.

In lab-grown diamonds, this occurs naturally when nitrogen is introduced into the growth chamber, producing hues that range from soft lemon to vivid canary yellow.

The process is 100% natural to the diamond the color is stable and permanent.
