Diamond is so strong, in fact, that its name comes from the
​Greek word "adamas," which means “invincible” or “unbreakable.”

​History
Picture

Diamonds are so ubiquitous they need no introduction.  Being first traded throughout parts of India almost 2,500 years ago and were immediately coveted by the royal and wealthy.  As they made their way into other parts of the world, they started making waves among Europe’s elite.  The Archduke Maximillian of Austria then started a trend that would last centuries, he presented one to Mary of Burgundy as an engagement ring. 

The Fab Four
​​

Carbon, pressure, heat and time. These are the four things needed to create diamonds. Heat: 752 degrees Fahrenheit.  Pressure: 434,113 pounds per square inch.  Diamonds are created  100 miles underground in the Earth's mantle over billions of years.  Considering these beauties start as just pressurized Carbon they sure do come a long way!

Treatment and Care

            Being a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale makes for easy cleaning.  Diamonds can be placed in ultrasonic cleaners unless it has been treated or has inclusions in which case you should use a lint free cloth or mild soap and warm water.  You should regularly bring it back to have the jeweler inspect it and professionally clean it to best preserve your diamonds and other gems. 

Happy birthday to all of you born in April!

Don’t always expect him to introduce you to his family and friends. You are dating him – not his politician dad, not his celebrity mom, not his artist brother who gets paid a million for his artwork. So don’t make him feel you are only going out with him because you want to meet his friends from the music scene. For all we know he has been sick of showbiz all his life that’s why he just wants to spend alone time with you, away from the legions. Do this and you will avoid seeing him in a party, drunk, holding hands with another woman because you’re too busy socializing!
