Generally, you buy them.
Diamonds are naturally 'colourless', graded D-F in the diamond colour scale, or they are naturally many colours, including yellow, blue, green, pink, black and chocolate. Coloured stones have their own scale of colour saturation, Vivid Fancy being the most desirable.
Diamonds possess colours based on the occurrence of trace minerals within the stone. Some of the 'light' coloured diamonds are irradiated, to enhance the colour. 'Treated' diamonds should always be labeled as such, and often are not labeled.
When investing in a coloured diamond, best practices dictate that you obtain a certificate for the stone from a certified gemologist.
