Supply of natural pink diamonds has tightened further as production from the mines historically responsible for most global pink output continues its long decline.

  • A handful of now-depleted or closed mines accounted for the large majority of natural pink diamonds ever brought to market, and nothing has replaced that volume since.
  • New pink diamond finds from other locations remain sporadic and small by comparison, which keeps the category structurally short of demand.
  • This scarcity sits behind the widening fancy pink and yellow premiums we've flagged before, with pink specifically tightening faster than yellow.

Genuine natural pink stones of any real size are effectively a special-order category now. Contact us if one becomes available and you want to be notified ahead of general release.
