S&P Diamond Hexagon 0.49ct
This salt-and-pepper diamond is a 0.49 carat hexagon, step-cut and measuring 4.20 x 4.20mm. The specks and clouds inside are natural inclusions, mother nature's fingerprint, not flaws. Every salt-and-pepper pattern is one of a kind, straight from the earth, so no two stones are ever alike.
At Mohs 10, this diamond carries the same everyday hardness as any diamond, the hardest natural material there is, which makes it excellent for daily wear. Because salt-and-peppers live outside the traditional white-diamond market, you get dramatically more stone per dollar. These stones were never graded or traded as a commodity, so there is no Kimberley-style certification culture around them, and that is the point, not a gap. Heather and her team in Boulder, Colorado hand-vet every stone before setting, checking for any surface-reaching inclusion that could become a fracture point in a heavily included stone.
Bohemi does not sell loose stones. This diamond is set into an engagement ring or a custom piece, and the $880 price is the starting point for the ring. Reach out if it speaks to you, or explore the full range of engagement rings.
