There are also 2 types of fawns in Diamonds, autosomal recessive & sex-linked (probably actually fawn and cinnamon). The sex-linked is the established one (most common). The recessive one looks slightly more attractive with retained black areas without dilution but is still quite rare. I know that the recessive one at least is from mutated pure Diamond stock.
Thanks Tiaris, it's just my devious mind
