We are the world\u2019s largest producer of diamonds, and that gives reason to believe that we are also ahead in terms of coloured rough diamond production. Today, Alrosa produces at least 7,000 carats of coloured diamonds per year. We have all it takes to dominate the market of coloured diamonds. The collection presented in Hong Kong demonstrates our capabilities,\u201d said Evgeny Agureev, director of the United Selling Organization of Alrosa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collection showcased in Hong Kong comprised 250 diamonds of different shapes and hues. The company held the \u201cTrue Colours\u201d auction on September 19th and was scheduled to announce the results by the month-end, at the time of going to press. The company plans to hold the \u201cTrue Colours\u201d auction on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key stones of the collection, which are expected to be the most expensive lots, include a 11-carat diamond of rare yellow hue (fancy vivid yellow), an orange-yellow oval diamond of over 15 carats and a 11-carat cushion of noble purple colour (deep purple-pink). According to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), the Deep Purple is the largest diamond of this colour ever graded by GIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alrosa said the alluvial mines of JSC \u201cAnabar Diamonds\u201d in Yakutia and the open pit of PJSC \u201cSeveralmaz\u201d in the Arkhangelsk region have the largest coloured diamond reserves. Alrosa sorts coloured diamonds according to a new technology that includes almost all hues and colour grades. Most of these diamonds are processed by Diamonds Alrosa, the company\u2019s polished branch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne of the Alrosa\u2019s competitive edges is the in-house lapidary division, which gives us the opportunity to trace the history of each diamond from mine to market. Our diamonds enjoy a sterling reputation and comply with the highest ethical and environmental standards. We invest in our diamond cutters, providing extensive training and opportunities for professional development. This allows us to keep the tradition of the highest quality of gem cutting, the paragon of diamond cutting art also known as the \u2018Russian cut\u2019,\u201d said Agureev.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6304 lazyload\" width=\"239\" height=\"158\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2.jpg 524w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2-450x298.jpg 450w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2-225x149.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_2-145x96.jpg 145w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Vivid orangy yellow<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6303 lazyload\" width=\"230\" height=\"154\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3.jpg 475w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3-450x302.jpg 450w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3-225x151.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Solitaire_October_2018-v1.pdf-Google-Chrome_3-143x96.jpg 143w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 230px) 100vw, 230px\" \/><figcaption>Fancy deep purple-pink<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian diamond producer Alrosa presented the first-of-itskind collection of large coloured diamonds at the Hong Kong Jewellery &amp;
