Most gemstones want your attention. The black diamond just stands there, composed, and gets it anyway.
Still a diamond
A diamond is crystallized carbon, and a 10 on the Mohs scale is the top of it. A black diamond is one too: the same material, with a completely different mood. Instead of throwing white sparkle around, it gives you something denser and more graphic, like a drop of ink with facets.
The honest part
Our black diamonds are natural diamonds that have been heat-treated to achieve their distinctive dark color. We say so plainly, because it's the kind of detail you should hear from us rather than discover later.
What it's come to mean
Today, black diamond is linked with strength, resilience and a certain unbothered confidence. It's the stone you wear when you don't need to explain yourself.
A black diamond doesn't try to dazzle. It holds the light and stays itself.
Where to find it
Choose it on the DOT Bracelet, the DOT Solitaire Necklace or the DOT Cuff. If you're curious how we describe everything else we use, our materials note covers it.
