Light Brown Diamonds
Light Brown is the deepest brown notation on the D-to-Z scale before a stone is graded as a fancy colour, printed beside a colour letter, on these pages mostly K to N. Shoppers meet it as a full champagne. It is a different grade from Faint Brown and Very Light Brown, which sit lighter on the same scale, and none of the three is a fancy grade: a stone graded Fancy Light Brown or Fancy Brown has no colour letter at all and is priced as a coloured diamond.
