How do growth conditions and treatments affect the colouration of synthetic diamonds?

  • Factors: The specific hue and intensity of colouration can vary based on growth conditions, impurity concentrations, and any post-growth treatments applied.
  • Enhancements: Post-growth treatments may be utilized to enhance or alter the diamond's colour, further influencing its appearance.

These distinctions highlight the unique characteristics of CVD and HPHT diamonds, particularly regarding their colouration, which can vary based on impurity content and growth processes.
