It's silly though, because diamonds are not even rare... it's just that the market is controlled. And engagement rings.... were entirely a very successful Israeli marketing campaign by De Beers. (blood diamonds & price fixing included).... which is why the new diamond laundering ::cough:: "clean diamonds" are being offered through Tiffany and such. Who wants a clear white stone anyhow?

Ziela1313, brown and black diamonds are more common than than clear ones. They were originally only used for commercial applications until another successful marketing campaign in recent years by the jewelry industry started pushing "chocolate diamonds". If you want a truly rare stone get an alexandrite or red emerald if you can afford one. If not, a high quality natural emerald, ruby, or sapphire is more valuable now and will always retain its value better than a diamond... because their value doesn't depend upon false scarcity. However, I'm writing this for others because you won't be reading it. The most important thing for a stone you're wearing everyday is to get something you love and if a black diamond does that for you, that's all that matters. :-)

Player #4694363, Who even cares about diamond when you can have opals? The most beautiful ones are the so called "black" opals from Lightning Ridge, New South Wales, Australia. Malachite is lovely too.

Player BARTEMAEUS 10, Opals are beautiful! But being relatively soft, they won't hold up to daily wear like diamonds. I have large opal earrings made by a Navajo silversmith that are my treasure. And Amber earrings and pendant with an insect in the pendant, also Navajo made.

Montana Lady, Amethyst is actually one of the rarer gems! Not as high on the 'hardness' scale. That is a reason 'diamonds are forever'. Properly mounted, they can be handed down for generations. Worn thru a lifetime, banged around with no damage.

Lolita , Theroble! With opals is They are unstable; they expand and contract in heat and cold. One cold day my central stone in ring disappeared - apparently it had contracted and fell out of the mount. The replacement stone cracked when my hand collided with a cupboard. They're eautiful, but fragile.

Diamond made this Universe. Well, the DNA STRUCT URE of the Diamond made this Universe. Structure is not to be confused with code. The word and technique of Structure is almost being forgotten in science.

Player #14785174, my birthstone is also peridot, and I never heard the term "Hawaiian diamond." Thank you for teaching me something new. I was never thrilled with the peridot; the inly good thing about it is that it's not sardonx, whichever used to be the August birthstone. My dad had a one * his birthstone too) and it's kind of a reddish brown

The value of a gemstone is in your heart. No matter the price or what kind of gemstone ut is, it's how you feel about it. I personally like fire opals and amethysts ( my birthstone).
