Specialist note

This 'chameleon' diamond just like the reptile of the same name has the ability to change colour. Under normal conditions the diamond has an olive-green colour which transforms to a yellow colour when heated to a temperature of 200-300° Centigrade or when left in the dark for several days. This interesting phenomena is caused by irregularities in the diamond's atomic structure
