Salt & Pepper Diamond - Pear - 1.48ct
This 1.48-carat natural salt and pepper diamond is a hand-selected pear-cut stone, measuring 9.24 by 6.28mm and priced at $1,875. Its smoky gray and inky black speckles are characteristics, not flaws, the mother-nature fingerprint that makes every salt and pepper diamond genuinely one of a kind. No two look alike, and this pear carries its own distinct pattern of natural inclusions.
A salt and pepper diamond is graded on character rather than a flawless white-diamond ideal, and because it lives outside the traditional diamond market you get dramatically more stone per dollar. It shares the same Mohs 10 hardness and the same everyday toughness as a white diamond, so it stands up to daily wear. Each stone Bohemi offers is hand-vetted, and there is no Kimberley certification because these diamonds were never traded as a commodity.
Bohemi does not sell loose stones on their own; every diamond is set into a finished piece by Heather and her team in Boulder, Colorado, whether that is the Olympia setting, the Arcadia Small setting, or a custom project designed with you. See how this pear can anchor one of our engagement rings.
