2.32ct Botswana Salt and Pepper Diamond - Oval

There is a category of salt and pepper diamond that sits apart from the rest — so light, so sparsely marked, that "salt and pepper" barely covers it. This is one of those stones. Predominantly white with soft, scattered inclusions, it sits closer to a snow diamond than a classic salt and pepper; its interior catches light in broad, misty flashes rather than the dense graphite patterning you'd more commonly see.

What makes it especially interesting is its proportions. Cut shallower than a standard oval, it carries a spread well beyond what its 2.32 carat weight would suggest — appearing significantly larger face-up than a conventionally proportioned stone of the same weight. That low profile also opens up your setting options: it works beautifully either table-up in a traditional setting or culet-up, where the facets at the base become the face of the stone, creating an entirely different visual effect.

This is a stone that rewards an open-minded brief.
