Additional information:
Diamond is the birthstone for April and, in addition to being the most popular gemstone for engagement rings, it is also the anniversary gemstone for the 10th and 60th wedding anniversaries.
Although diamond is the hardest of all gemstones known to man, its composition is the simplest: it is ordinary carbon. The ancient Greeks believed that diamonds were splinters of stars fallen to Earth. Some even claimed they were the tears of the gods, crystallized lightning, or hardened drops of dew. The exact origin of diamonds remained a mystery for centuries.
In antiquity, only kings wore diamonds, symbols of strength, courage, and invincibility. Over the centuries, the diamond acquired its unique status as the ultimate gift of love. It was said that Cupid's arrows were adorned with diamonds, whose magic was unrivaled.
But it was not until 1477, when Archduke Maximilian of Austria gave a diamond ring to Mary of Burgundy, that the tradition of diamond engagement rings began. The very reason a woman wears it on the third finger of her left hand goes back to the Egyptian belief that the vena amoris (vein of love) ran directly from the heart to the tip of the third finger of the left hand.
