Most people had never heard of black diamonds and those that did had little interest in them, until the late 20th century, when designers started utilising them and mixing them with contrasting white diamonds in pav’e settings such as these Black Diamond Earring Studs.

As for black diamond engagement rings, I think they became very popular when Mr Big gave Carrie a five carat black diamond engagement ring at the end of the 2010 movie Sex in the City2.
Also in 2010 Deadmau5 and tattoo artist Katherine Von Drachenberg, known as Kat Von D, flaunted there black diamond engagement rings. Not forgetting Rob Patterson also gave Carmen Electra a gorgeous black diamond ring.

Famous Black Diamonds.

Sergio is the largest carbonado rough black diamond ever found. Apparently it weighs 3167 carats it was found in Bahia Brazil in 1895. It is believed to be a meteorite from outer space.

The second largest is thought to be the spirit of de Grisogono and weights 312.24 carats. this stone is part of a famous black diamond collection of the Swiss jeweller Fawaz Gruosi . This stone was cut from a 587 carat rough stone.

It is said that Fawaz Gruosi has one of the best collections of black diamonds in the world, he bought another black diamond in 1998 weighing 300.12 carats of rough, it is said to have taken three years to cut and ended up as a 115.34 carat heart shape and was known as the Gruosi diamond. This heart shaped stone is the centrepiece of a necklace crafted in white gold with a further 58.7carats of white diamonds and 14.1 carats of lively, vivid green tsavorite garnets.

Normally diamond cutting does not take three years, however the Gruosi diamond like many other black diamonds, have an unequal amount of soft and hard areas.
As such the Gruosi diamond had to be handled with a steady hand and much patience.
