As a jeweller I loved seeing this question plus it's good knowledge to have when buying a diamond

My parents went through a phase where they watched the jewelry channel nonstop back when I was a teen... Guess I learned something. My kids think I'm boring with my food network!

as a graduate jeweler gemologist from GIA I fully agree with Sanjana Bhogun. It sets the standards for the rarity, quality, and value. Takes one to a different level of appreciation.

Sanjana Bhogun, yep, and 90% of diamonds are used in industrial purposes, not jewelry

I’m sure it’s interesting but throughout reading that, all I could think was blood diamond and all the suffering.

GIA is a "non profit" organisation because it us supported by the companies trading diamonds. These companies manipulate the market by keeping out of it the majority of mined diamonds to keep the prices high. If all the diamonds would be released in the market you would buy tha expensive engagement ring for a fraction of it's price. Explain her what a "blood diamond" is, tell her you love her and buy her 🍔.

I have never liked them, from an early age. I don't like fancy cars, nail polished, make up or shopping. Not the typical woman I guess.

LeLe, They are used in drill bits to cut through rock, and there's a diamond needle on most vinyl- record players.

Working in a machine shop, a 3 carat diamond tipped tool costs $35.00USD, but apparently polishing it and putting it a ring makes that diamond worth $10,000.00USD.

I'm amazed some people have mentioned that diamonds are mostly used for industrial purposes. I'm curious to know what they are

dai_laffin, my first new car had "diamond dust" paint. In the late 50's and early 60's that was the cat's meow!!

also important is source: please avoid blood diamond, for eg. have diamond mines in Canada, no slaves or child labour, check out the movie with L DiCaprio.
