How do gemstones get their color when original stones,
especially diamonds, look transparent. From
sparkling white too off white to red to
vibrant yellow and turquoise green as
many gemstones are found in white transparent form many stones get their color
when they Gemstones get their color by
the response from the natural as well as artificial light they come in contact with.
The color of any stone is due to the natural light in the environment. We know that day light, sunlight, which looks
white is in fact a combination of all colors of the spectrum. When light comes
in contact with the gemstone lost of the light is absorbed and a small amount of light in a particular frequency
or wavelength is reflected. This part
that is reflected reaches the eye and the eye sees the color of the gem stone. Example the emerald absorbs
all the other colors of the spectrum and reflects green, ruby, absorbs all the other colors of white light,
blue green and reflect red.

The same gemstone can also be found in many different colors.
Even though the composition of the stone is same the amount of impurities will
affect the amount and frequency of light reflected from each stone and hence
the same named composition gemstone may also exhibit different shades and
colors.
We see the original stones and the lab created stones, difference
being the original gemstones may be a bit dull
with impurities inside the stone and the lab created ones are treated to
bring out the vibrancy and sparkle of the gemstone by cut and polishing. Gemstone
manufacturers also manipulate and process certain treatment to the stones to
bring about a more vibrant, and rich color in any gemstone.
It is seen that a process of heating more often improves the
clarity and deepness of the color of the gemstone.
