Diamond-Jewellery-3-Ideal-Occasions-to-wear-it

Diamond is the most timeless gemstone. It is the synonym of luxury and the elite. The symbol or riches and social status but also a symbol of purity, mental clarity, and emotional resilience. In medieval times, wearing a diamond was said to purify the mind and body from evil and unproductive thoughts and was always associated with royals, priests, and scholars of the highest social status. Many phrases revolve around it and most of them have to do with a person’s virtue and worth. “He/she is an unpolished diamond” meaning that the individual is talented but needs work, “he/she is worth his/her weight in diamonds” meaning that the individual is extremely valuable and many more examples.

To this day, a diamond is the single most sought-after gemstone in the history of jewellery making. And the price of a high clarity diamond can rise exponentially as its carat weight increases!

Another perk of diamonds is that they literally complement anything, and anyone perfectly. Their neutral natural translucent quality together with the absence of colour (in white diamonds) and their brilliant sparkle creates a stylistic force to be reconned with!
