King spoke on the topic \u2018Struck by Lightning: The Rare World of Coloured Diamonds.\u2019<\/h4>\n<h4>The session started with a quick introduction of John King by Sriram Natarajan, Managing Director of GIA India. King recently retired after 40 years of dedicated service at GIA. His academic work in fine art included studies in colour theory and colour order systems which supplemented his work in the laboratory.<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<!--more-->\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h4>He has written and lectured extensively on coloured diamonds and laboratory practice, and has graded some of the world\u2019s most famous diamonds, including the Hope Diamond. In this session, alumni members discovered some of the unique coloured diamonds, learnt about application of vision and colour science, determination of an overall hue circle, recent trends in coloured diamonds, and more.<\/h4>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-3661 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/index.php\/2021\/08\/16\/gia-india-organises-virtual-alumni-guest-session-with-coloured-diamond-expert-john-king\/john-king_quote_jewelpedia\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"GIA India Organises Virtual Alumni Guest Session With Coloured Diamond Expert John King\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia.png 940w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia-150x126.png 150w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia-600x503.png 600w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia-696x583.png 696w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/John-King_quote_Jewelpedia-501x420.png 501w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h4>\u201cIt was a pleasure to share my presentation with such an enthusiastic audience.

Knowing the science of separating natural diamonds from treated or laboratory-grown, as well as understanding the GIA grading system, helps everyone appreciate these amazing, rare gems. I also hope everyone will see coloured diamonds with fresh eyes, that they will wonder at the infinite variety of feelings we get from all the colours and that it will expand your appreciation for them as true works of art.\u201d<\/h4>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-3661 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/index.php\/2021\/08\/16\/gia-india-organises-virtual-alumni-guest-session-with-coloured-diamond-expert-john-king\/manoj-singhania_quote_jewelpedia\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"GIA India Organises Virtual Alumni Guest Session With Coloured Diamond Expert John King\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia.png 940w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia-150x126.png 150w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia-600x503.png 600w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia-696x583.png 696w, https:\/\/jewelpedia.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Manoj-Singhania_Quote_Jewelpedia-501x420.png 501w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h4>\u201cIt was a great session with John and I\u2019m sure our alumni enjoyed it thoroughly,\u201d Manoj Singhania, Director \u2013 Education, GIA India. \u201cJohn\u2019s experience and expertise on coloured diamonds is unparalleled and we\u2019re happy to have received an overwhelming response for all our sessions.
