Natural gray diamonds derive their color from the presence of certain minerals and inclusions during their formation. These elements interact with the diamond's crystal structure, producing a range of gray shades. Unlike treated diamonds, natural gray diamonds retain their original hue, making each stone a unique work of nature.

Inclusions such as hydrogen and, in some cases, boron play a significant role in influencing the gray color in diamonds. The specific concentration of these elements determines the diamond's final shade.

The value of gray diamonds is influenced by the 4Cs—Color, Clarity, Cut, Carat. The rarity and intensity of the gray color significantly impact their value. Gray diamonds can also exhibit secondary hints of blue, green, or yellow, which can affect their price and make them highly desirable among collectors and jewelry enthusiasts.
