Where do Diamonds come from?
When you look at your Diamond Engagement Ring, it is hard to
believe that hundreds of millions of years ago the stone began its life
Deep below the earths crust. The unimaginable temperatures burnt
away its impurities leaving a pocket of almost pure carbon. At
pressures that could crush mountains, this liquid carbon was forced
to the surface in a larval flow of magma, funnelling from the depths
of the earth. Cooling, just below the surface, it was subjected to
even more pressure as it contracted, it formed an almost symmetrical
crystal, harder and more dense than any other material on earth.
After sleeping in total darkness for millions of years, your Diamond
Was cut and polished by expert hands, it becomes radiantly alive,
Its facets reflecting light in all directions.
So beautiful but what a journey!
