Does the average person appreciate a fancy yellow diamond?
Do you think the average person seeing a fancy yellow diamond would appreciate what it really is? Or do you think they would just think its a bad quality over yellow diamond and only think white is valuable?
I think it is common knowledge that a very canary yellow (fancy) diamond is more valuable than the white.
However, in terms of being able to appreciate it when you see another person wearing it, maybe not so much.
At first glance the average untrained eye would probably pass it off as a topaz or a yellow sapphire, whereas a white diamond would earn a second closer study.
Just a little side note, for synthetic diamonds, it is the fancy yellow diamonds that are produced most often.
