:No, they are clearly not.  Though there are global pricing guidelines, they tend to apply very differently to different origins of diamonds.  The whole issue of [[conflict diamond]]s has also made diamonds clearly NOT commodity, since people now clearly do care if they came from [[Gus Keuwenhoven]] or not.
