Pink Diamond Jewellery

Pink diamonds are the rarest gemstones we work with, and the ones we are most often asked about. The beauty of a natural pink comes from its origin. Extremely rare, the colour is set by geology, the result of pressure events that bent the crystal lattice millions of years ago. What exists in circulation is what exists, and there is no way to replicate the process.

We have been making pink diamond jewellery at our Mt Hawthorn studio since Stelios Palioudakis opened in 2007, and continue to hold a small reserve of natural Western Australian pink diamonds.

What Makes Pink Diamonds Rare

Natural pink diamonds account for less than 0.01 percent of the world’s diamond production. For most of the past forty years, the vast majority came from a single mine in the Kimberley region of Western Australia that operated from 1983 until its closure in November 2020. Ending that commercial production shifted pink diamonds into the category of the most valuable stones in the world.

Certified naturals at any grade now move through the trade faster than before closure, and prices have continued to appreciate over time, with the highest price records set regularly at international auctions. The pinks we keep at the studio come from our own reserve, supplemented by occasional auction acquisitions and stones sourced through industry contacts.

The closure shifted natural Australian pink diamonds into part of Western Australia’s gemological heritage. Supply is finite by definition and grows rarer each passing year. Every natural pink we sell is considered investment-grade, and carries independent laboratory grading on colour, clarity, carat, and cut.

Our Pink Diamond Collection

We design pink diamond jewellery in-house, producing unique jewellery one piece at a time. The current range balances classic elegance with modern style:

• Pink diamond engagement rings. Round brilliant, oval, pear, marquise, princess, cushion and emerald cut natural pinks, usually in 18ct white gold, rose gold, or platinum.
• Pink and white diamond rings. A small natural pink accent paired with a larger white diamond centre, offering a natural pink at a lower price point.
• Pink diamond pendants, necklaces and stud earrings. Delicate solitaire diamond pendants through to pave and halo designs.
• Coloured diamond combinations. Pinks paired with champagne, yellow, or blue diamonds for a more layered look.

Every piece is designed, cast, set and polished under our roof. We also keep loose natural pinks, in round brilliant cut and fancy shapes, for clients commissioning a fully bespoke piece.

A Recent Pink Diamond Commission

A client from Nedlands commissioned a 40th birthday pendant earlier this year. She wanted a single natural pink around 0.3 carat, set cleanly without a halo. We showed her three stones from our reserve (Fancy Light Pink, Fancy Pink, Fancy Intense Pink) and walked through how colour saturation affects price. She chose a 0.32 carat Fancy Intense Pink, bezel-set in 18ct rose gold on a fine chain. The pendant cost roughly what a small white diamond ring would, but carries a stone that will appreciate rather than depreciate over the decades.

Sourcing And Certification

Every natural pink we sell passes through our own hands at the bench, with independent laboratory grading, usually GIA, attached. We are a listed partner of Q Report Jewellery Insurance, and we recommend insuring any pink diamond purchase from day one given the rarity of the stones, their ongoing price trajectory, and the lifetime value these pieces hold.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Are Natural Pink Diamonds So Expensive?

Extreme rarity, and the 2020 closure of the world’s primary source mine. Certified naturals in good colour and clarity command a significant premium and are expected to keep appreciating.

Can You Source A Pink Diamond To My Specification?

Yes, within what is available globally. We search our own reserve first, then reach out to auction houses and trade contacts for a stone at your specification.

Are Pink Diamonds A Good Investment?

Historically yes, particularly top colour grades. We advise clients to buy for long-term value rather than short-term turnover, and we recommend independent valuation through Q Report or equivalent.
