Yellow Diamond
Yellow diamonds are formed in the same manner as white diamonds are - by intense heat and pressure in the deep earth. Yellow diamonds' exclusive color comes from the presence of nitrogen in their composition. The nitrogen molecules absorb blue light, making the stone a yellow shade. Depending on the amount of nitrogen, a yellow diamond could range from light to dark
The diamond color normally goes from D to Z. As the letter is nearer to Z, it means that the diamond is less colorless and starts to be a bit yellowish in tone, a pale-yellow shade. This degrades the diamond and their prices decrease as you get closer to Z.
However, at a particular point, if you continue on the color grade, the color doesn't appear as a faded yellow and instead becomes an attractive yellow color - this is the point when the price increases again and the diamond is considered a most expensive yellow diamond.
