What is an E Color Diamond?

An E color diamond is nearly as colorless as it gets-just one step below the rare D grade. To the naked eye, it looks perfectly white and brilliant, making it a top choice for those who want premium sparkle without the D color price. Lab-grown E color diamonds offer the same icy beauty as natural stones but are more affordable, so you can get a bigger or higher-quality diamond for your budget. Whether natural or lab-grown diamonds, E color are ideal for engagement rings and fine jewelry.
