The colors of diamonds:

The color grading of a Diamond is one of few elements that affects its price.
The Color Grading scale of Diamonds starts from D to Z (D E F G .... etc) and is used to identify the amount of color in each diamond.
(The letters A, B & C are not in use at the color grading scale).
The exact color is determined by a professional gemologist such as our gemologists at Rothem Collection that have years of color grading experience, day by day.

The most colorless color grading is determined by the "D" letter,
while the most colorful grading is determined by the "Z" letter.

At the basics, "D" color which is the most colorless grading,
gives the diamond the most high value, while "Z" grading gives the diamond the most lowest value, but not always:

Sometimes "Fancy" color diamonds which are very rare like fancy yellow, Fancy blue etc.. are more expensive than the D color since their color is so intense what gives them an extremely high price such as the "D" color and even more.

Usually people are looking to buy diamonds graded between G color to J color.
G, H, I & J colors, are considerable as White color which is nearly colorless
that still looks very white to the naked eye, and their price is significantly
much lower than the most colorless "D" color.

For a certain budget, as low as you go further on the color grading scale
(towards Z), The diamond's value goes down so you can afford your self a better clarity or a bigger carat weight diamond and vice versa.
