Upload fancy colored diamonds to RapNet

The process is exactly the same as white diamonds, just you fill out the fancy colors in separate fields to the D-Z color diamonds.

There are 3 fields of fancy color information to fill out when uploading a fancy color diamond to RapNet.

  1. Fancy Color: This is the main body color and is usually the final word in the color description (grade) on the report. This field must contain one color (e.g. ‘Yellow’ or ‘Y’). Fancy Color values must be entered in the column called ‘Fancy Color’ when uploading to RapNet.

  2. Fancy Color Intensity: This is the intensity of color the diamond holds. Each diamond can have only one intensity. Intensity values must be entered in the column called ‘Fancy Color Intensity’ when uploading to RapNet. See the example below.

  3. Fancy Color Overtone: This field is for the secondary color or colors (also known as modifiers). Fancy Color Overtone values must be entered in the column called 'Fancy Color Overtone' when uploading to RapNet.


Example:


We accept all colors/overtones/hues in the overtone column.


Upload using Polypus and Certnet Format

You can upload diamonds via Polyplus or Certnet formats from the Upload multiple diamonds screens.
