How can I tell a Golconda diamond?

How can I tell a Golconda diamond?
The best way to tell a Golconda diamond is to have it evaluated by a licensed appraiser who specializes in gemstone jewelry. While the color and cut of a diamond may assist with identification, it is usually not possible to determine the origin of one with the naked eye alone. Shop a range of diamond jewelry on 1stDibs.
