DH and I have black diamond rings that we had custom made for Christmas a couple of years ago. The center stone is the black diamond (I think they're each about 2 carats), and then they are accented with small white diamonds. They are both set in rose and white gold. We both LOVE them and get a ton of compliments.
To me, they are more dark dark gray than they are black, and they're not quite as opaque as onyx - I can definitely see the depth and glassiness in ours. (I have found that smaller black diamonds do look very black - it may be the carat size that makes ours look a tad lighter/steelier.) They do have a sheen to them, almost like an oil puddle.

Here are a few, from the front, side, and back. DH's band is round, and mine is sort of square - indented on the sides to be comfortable on my hand, and then flat on the bottom. The rose gold pins that look like they hold mine together have little diamonds capping them. We love the rings & wear them frequently! (I really should have cleaned them before I took photos!)

I couldn't copy and paste the exact page, but there are some black diamond bridal e-rings as well as some other jewelry with black diamonds. Interesting stuff.
Manda -- the same one is on Overstock right now, and probably cheaper too!
