Fancy yellow diamonds radiate warmth and vibrancy, adding a sunny statement to engagement ring designs. Shop our fancy yellow collection in solid gold, with lab-grown, natural, or moissanite stones.
Where yellow color comes from
Yellow comes from nitrogen in the crystal lattice absorbing blue light. It is the most readily available of the fancy colors and the one where cut makes the largest difference, because certain shapes concentrate color and others dilute it. Radiant, cushion and oval deepen a yellow noticeably, while a round brilliant tends to scatter it and read paler at the same grade.
Choosing a setting metal
Setting works the same way. Yellow stones set in yellow gold merge into the metal and read as one warm tone; set in white metal with white diamond accents, the same stone reads as distinctly yellow. Most yellow engagement rings use white settings or white halos for exactly this reason. If you want the color to be unmistakable, choose white gold or a white diamond halo. If you want a softer, more tonal effect, yellow gold will give you that.
Lab-grown, natural or moissanite
Every design in this collection can be made with a lab-grown diamond, a natural diamond or moissanite. Lab-grown fancy yellow is chemically and optically identical to mined fancy yellow and costs considerably less, which is why most yellow engagement rings in this price range use it. Natural fancy yellow is graded by GIA, lab-grown by IGI, and moissanite carries a GRA certificate. Every stone ships with its certificate.
Made to order in solid gold
Each ring is handcrafted to order in our Bangkok workshop in solid 9K, 12K, 14K, 16K or 18K gold, never plated, in yellow, white or rose. 18K has a richer color; 14K is harder and more resistant to daily knocks. Shipping is free worldwide with duties included, and returns are open for 30 days.

Fancy yellow diamond engagement ring FAQs
What is a canary diamond?
Canary is the trade term for a fancy yellow diamond with strong, saturated color. It is a descriptive name rather than a grading term, so always check the actual color grade on the certificate.
Are lab-grown yellow diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. A lab-grown fancy yellow diamond has the same chemical composition, hardness and optical properties as a mined one. The difference is origin, not material.
Which cut makes a yellow diamond look most colorful?
Radiant, cushion and oval concentrate color and make a yellow stone read more strongly. A round brilliant scatters light and tends to look paler at the same color grade.
Should I choose white gold or yellow gold?
White gold isolates the stone and makes the yellow read as deliberate and distinct. Yellow gold blends with it for a warmer, more tonal look. Both are available on every design here.
Do your yellow diamonds come certified?
Yes. Natural diamonds are certified by GIA, lab-grown diamonds by IGI, and moissanite by GRA. Every gold piece is also stamped and certified for purity and weight.
Can I design a yellow diamond ring from scratch?
Yes. We source the center stone and build the setting around it. Share a reference image or a description and we will work from there.
