Green diamond

Green diamonds are rare and beautiful gemstones that are the object of desire for collectors and jewelry lovers around the world. These jewels tend to be of high value and can reach huge prices at auctions and in personal transactions.

What makes this diamond rare?

They are rare due to the fact that their formation requires a certain set of conditions.  They usually form in the mantle zone of the earth's crust at a depth of 150 to 400 kilometers.  This is a place where high pressure and temperature promote the formation of diamond crystals, and impurities of metallic elements such as copper, nickel or chromium can give them a green color.

One of the most famous locations for green diamonds is the Muso Mine in West Africa, where one of the largest green diamonds in history, the Tree of Life Emerald diamond weighing over 1 carat, was found.  Other notable locations are mines in Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Zimbabwe and Australia.

The history of origin includes many famous stones, including the Green Dragon diamond, found in Colombia and weighing more than 40 carats, as well as the Green Mirror diamond, found in Brazil and weighing more than 40 carats.

Depending on the color saturation, a diamond can be valued from several thousand to several million dollars per carat.  Some of the most expensive green diamonds, such as "Decollete" and "Aura", have sold for more than $16 million at auctions.

One of the famous ones is the "Green Moon", weighing 5.5 carats, which was sold at Sotheby's for $26.7 million in 2016.  Another famous green diamond is the Oasis, which sold at Christie's for $3.1 million in 2015.

They can also be processed to improve their color and quality.  Some stones are treated with radiation or heat to intensify their green hue, which can increase their value significantly.

Overall, green diamonds are unique and delightful stones that continue to attract the attention of collectors and jewelry lovers.  Their rarity and high value make them important objects for investment and savings.  Most of these gems are in private collections and rarely appear on the market.  However, if you have the opportunity to purchase a green diamond, it can be a valuable asset for a lifetime.
