I was looking at pictures of blue sparklies online, and i was just wondering, how much would something like, a 6.00 diamond, with the perfect fancy intense blue color, and a touch of grey cost? Even better, has anyone here even seen a diamond like that? I feel so un-educated by asking, because i'm not as "smart" when it comes to diamonds like most of you are!

They are astronomically expensive, if you can even find a 6ct stone like you described.  David's got a .42ct Fancy Grayish Blue listing at $35k by way of an example.  And his stone is very well-priced!

Hi Star,
from what I know, a 6 carat blue diamond is practically unheard of. that's talking like Hope Diamond size: http://en.wikipedia....rg/wiki/Hope_Diamond  
the internet has a lot of "blue" or "fancy colored" diamonds floating around, but many of them are irradiated, and therefore not worth a lot in general. to get a intense blue color diamond of any size i think about be several tens of thousands of dollars.

and
http://rockdiamond.c...d-gia-looks-blue-vs1

are both examples.  sorry, i'm still new to posting pics.

hope that was a little helpful.  Smiley

Put it like this - David had access to a 1.5 carat fancy deep blue, and that was about $1 million.

A 6 ct - if you could find it - would be way more than 4 times. Based on the price ratios of colourless diamonds, it could be about $10 up to 20-25 million.

BTW Allison - although the second one "looked blue", it was green. About as rare and expensive.

Me, too - blues are my ultimate favorite; but that light green is just killer.  

Thanks to OMC and David, I do have a little greyish-blue.  She was my hear's desire and is the center stone in my engagement ring, altho I wear it on my right hand.  My poor DH still just looks at it and shakes his head.  He can't understand how I'd prefer little and bloo to big and white. Grin

When she's dirty she's very gray; but when she's been steam cleaned, she shoots blue sparks all over the place.

The main part is in testamonials - the Saga of Li'l Blooo.  http://coloreddiamon...saga-of-lil-blooo/0/  The actual find was in a thread by OMC, and has a link in the Saga.  Have fun with it.  I surely did.  It was almost 6 months of daily up-and-downs.  The crew here made everything so much fun, even tho I hadn't a clue what I was doing.  Huh?
