This salt-and-pepper diamond is a 1.11 carat elongated hexagon, step-cut, measuring 7.90 by 4.60mm. The specks and clouds inside it are natural characteristics, not flaws: mother nature's fingerprint, one of a kind and straight from the earth. At Mohs 10 it carries the same everyday hardness as any diamond, the hardest natural material there is, so it is built for daily wear.

Salt-and-peppers live outside the traditional white-diamond market, so you get dramatically more stone per dollar. They were never graded or traded as a commodity, which means there is no Kimberley-style certification culture around them, and that is the point, not a gap. In a heavily included stone a surface-reaching inclusion can become a fracture point, so Heather and her team hand-vet every stone in Boulder, Colorado before it is ever set.

Bohemi does not sell loose stones. This diamond is set into an engagement ring or a custom piece, and the $1,450 price is the starting point for the finished ring. Explore the full range of engagement rings.

Are the inclusions flaws?

No. The specks and clouds in a salt-and-pepper diamond are natural characteristics, not flaws. They are mother nature's fingerprint, and every stone's pattern is one of a kind, straight from the earth. Heather and her team hand-vet each stone before setting it.

How durable is a salt-and-pepper diamond?

It is a Mohs 10 diamond, the same everyday hardness as any diamond and the hardest natural material, so it holds up beautifully to daily wear. In a heavily included stone a surface-reaching inclusion can be a fracture point, which is exactly what Heather's team checks for before setting.

Why does it cost less than a white diamond?

Salt-and-pepper diamonds live outside the traditional white-diamond market, so you get dramatically more stone per dollar. They were never graded or traded as a commodity, so there is no certification culture around them. That is the point, not a gap. This stone starts at $1,450 as the beginning of your ring.

Can I buy just the stone?

No. Bohemi does not sell loose stones. This diamond is set into an engagement ring or a custom piece designed with Heather in Boulder, Colorado, and the price is the starting point for the finished ring.
