In a special process called PVD (for physical vaporization and deposition), [rose gold](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rose-gold-tourbillon-souscription) is turned brown like sausages in a skillet. OK, maybe sausage links aren't the right thing to compare a $10,000 piece of jewelry to (de Grisogono's "Browny Borwn Gold" collection). Out of your price range? [QVC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rm-studio-x-rebecca-minkoff) has a [Chocolate Gold collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gold-fine-jewelry) that is 14 carat gold coated with "chocolate brown coating." Would that make a brown diamond set in chocolate gold a double chocolate coated carrot cake?
