Humans are practically hardwired to love diamonds. Indeed, diamonds are made of the same stuff we are: carbon, the basis of all lifeforms. Extraordinarily hard, diamonds can withstand intense pressure. In fact, they need just the right combination of heat and pressure to exist. But despite their unusual strength, even diamonds can be temperamental—they can be destroyed when subjected to the wrong combination of heat and oxygen.
Most diamonds formed billions of years ago and all natural diamonds are at least 990,000,000 years old. First used as decoration around 300 B.C, evidence shows diamonds bedecking European kings, likely due to the rock’s representation of strength, courage and invincibility.
This Edwardian dream piece is fabricated in sturdy, pretty platinum. Well-loved and worn smooth, the elegant and substantial band embraces a chunky 1.00ctw old mine cut diamond shining bright. She’s an ancient mineral made perfect by modern technology—an amazing example of the beauty of the Earth and human ingenuity.
