The Diamond Legend That Lives On
by John Fostar Media ReleationDiamonds are a long-term investment; a
lifetime’s actually. So, it makes sense that you spare time and do a little
homework before shopping for this gemstone. You need no special classes to know
about this precious stone. Just brush your knowledge about a diamond’s cut,
clarity, color, and carat.
Shed
your old beliefs
Diamonds are not just white or colorless. Today, you can find them in beautiful hues of pink, blue, green, yellow, and others. There is no rule that says colorless diamonds shine better than hued ones. It is a matter of choice. This is because the shine of this stone depends on its cut and clarity, not its color.
Some people believe that carat refers
to purity of diamond. It does not. Purity is a term that you use for gold. In
case of diamond, carat implies the stone’s weight. This is related to its size.
So, whether you are buying a diamond
pendant online or visiting a store, you must shed your old beliefs, which are usually
myths, and know the truth.
Who says you cannot combine diamonds
with other stones? You can, but with intelligence. You don’t want other
gemstones to overshadow your precious diamond, do you? Choose wisely.
How
it started
It is said: a diamond is a woman’s
best friend. Gifting a diamond engagement ring is a sign that you are ready for
a committed relationship with your partner.
Ever wondered how the trend or custom
of giving a diamond ring began?
According to a legend, a lovestruck
Austrian named Archduke Maximilian gifted a diamond engagement ring to his
beloved. He slipped it onto her left hand’s third finger. Ancient Egyptians believe
that this finger has a vein that is connected directly to the heart. Nobody
knows whether they lived happily ever after, but the trend started and till
today it lives.
Take
delight in buying diamonds, no stress please
When you associate with reputable
jewelers who deal with certified jewelry you need not worry about quality of
diamonds. Such jewelers talk about the 4Cs with their clients freely and help
them buy the best diamond that speaks for them.
It is not enough that you fall in love
with the stone. The stone, too, should accept you. This happens when you are
particular in choosing the cut and the color of diamond based on your
personality and skin tone. The latter one is important when choosing color of
diamond.
Also consider your lifestyle when
choosing this stone. For example, if you have a rough job that makes you spend
a lot of time outdoors, you may want to choose a small diamond pendant with a
sleek chain. Those who work a lot with hands must choose a simple design in
solid metal with a single stone rather than intricate design featuring carvings
that may trap dirt and too many stones that may come off.
