This is very interesting to find out about black diamonds.I haven't ever seen a black diamond in my life. White diamonds that are clear are very expensive.

@AKRao24 It is a precious stone that one day I hope to own. I saw some emeralds for sale in Colombia. However they were very expensive indeed.

That is true! Most of us they don't appreciate black color as an auspicious color!

@infatuatedbby , That is true...but the black diamonds can't shine like white ones as the black ones have the tendency to absorb the light more than reflecting it!

@AKRao24 It has almost no value because it is porous.

I tink it is not a popular ting like white diamond! Moreover the black color associated with it might have made it unpopular!

Yes, I can understand! This is something beyond one's imagination that there can be a black diamond and people they use it in wedding rings for the positive belief attached with it!
