Salt and pepper diamonds are white diamonds with naturally occurring inclusions. Inclusions are markings in the diamond that look like black and white specks, giving them their remarkable colors. They have the durability of a diamond, but a much more extensive shade range.
Inclusions in salt and pepper diamonds differ in size, position, and pattern, which creates an endless amount of variety. You’ll see these diamonds in a stunning array of colors from sultry silver to shades of gray to deep charcoal. Some diamonds may feel dark and moody, while others may feel bright and sparkly.
With this amount of variety, this is where the terms “galaxy” and “rustic” come in handy. Galaxy and rustic diamonds are names of salt and pepper diamonds with certain colorings. Galaxy diamonds are darker in color and have spacey, galaxy-like markings. On the other hand, rustic diamonds are lighter in color; their inclusions can have hues of red, yellow, and orange to them, giving them an overall rust-like color.
