Why Buy Diamonds

Diamonds are timeless representations of special events and unforgettable moments in our lives. We give and receive diamonds as gestures of love, trust and friendship. They are symbolic of strength, virtue, wealth, and eternal love throughout history.

The diamond is used to commemorate a sixty-year anniversary, and is recognized as the birthstone for the month of April. Available in a variety of lustrous colors, they lend theme to many fictional stories as well as renowned historical events.

The first documented diamond Engagement ring was presented to Mary of Burgundy in 1477 preceding her marriage to Maximilian, the Archduke of Austria. This custom lives on in Western societies and traditions today. While this is the most widely known association with diamonds, they can also be given for other reasons and in different forms of jewelry.

The diamond anniversary ring is given to renew vows or restate ones unconditional love after a period of time. The more recent introduction of the “right had ring” is more commonly purchased as a gift to ourselves as something we’ve always wanted. A diamond ring can make a wonderful Mother’s Day gift, or upon the arrival of a new baby. Some people also present children with small diamond rings as a coming of age, bat mitzvah, sweet sixteen, or Quinceanera.

If a diamond ring isn’t your style, these precious gems are also available in other jewelry.

Diamond earrings are available in a wide array of styles, shapes and sizes. Earrings make great gifts for any occasion, and are beautiful accessories to dress up an outfit. They come in traditional single diamond studs, dangle, drop, hoop, leaver back, and even clip-on if needed. You can also find diamond earrings set in fun, fashionable shapes such as religious symbols, flowers, or animals.

Another diamond jewelry accessory commonly seen is the essential diamond line bracelet, also known as the “tennis bracelet.” Tennis bracelets are slim, elegant accents, set in a symmetrical diamond pattern. This jewelry trend began when tennis star, Chris Evert lost one of her trademarked diamond line bracelets during the 1987 U.S. Open. The game was momentarily paused while she searched the court for it. This event is legendary for popularizing the diamond tennis bracelet.

The diamond necklace has long been the heir of mystery and enchantment not restricted to tales of romance and fantasy. These jeweled collars have been worn throughout history by affluent figures and have been seen as a symbol of merit. Diamond necklaces are stunning illustrations of romance and adoration certain to make any wearer feel priceless.

A close cousin to the diamond necklace is the understated elegance of a diamond pendant. This little treasure dangles lightly from a chain around a graceful neck with the delicate suggestion of a grand design. A diamond pendant is the perfect gift for anyone special and a symbol of timeless perfection.

Diamonds aren’t just for women. Diamonds make great accessories for men as well. Casual rings, bracelets, and necklaces have become more popular for men and are made in a wide variety of fashion to choose from. Diamonds can be found more traditionally in cufflinks, tie tacks, and watches just as easily. It’s no longer difficult to find a handsome diamond gift for a special man.

Diamonds are the perfect gesture to show someone how much they mean to you. Tell you closest friend she’s special with a new pair of diamond stud earrings. Show your niece you care with a sparkling diamond pendant. Make Dad smile with a diamond accented watch for Father’s Day. Whatever color, shape, or style, everyone loves diamonds. There’s no better way to make an impressive statement.
