Incolore (d'un blanc exceptionnel). Parce que les diamants tout à fait incolores sont extrêmement rares et chers, les bijoutiers n'en gardent généralement pas en stock. Ces diamants sont surtout utilisés pour les bijoux faits sur commande. 4, record 3, French, - incolore
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Lors de vos visites chez les bijoutiers, il est possible que vous entendiez le terme «bleu-blanc». À l'origine, ce terme faisait uniquement référence aux diamants blancs présentant une fluorescence bleue, mais on a fait de ce terme un si mauvais usage que la Federal Trade Commission américaine a dû en interdire l'utilisation. 4, record 3, French, - incolore
