Formed under immense pressures and heat in the heart of the Earth’s Mantle layer, the diamond is made of crystals of pure carbon and is the hardest known natural mineral on Earth.

Formed 100 miles below the surface around 1 -3 billion years ago, the diamond crystals survived enormous volcanic eruptions before being pushed closer to the surface, where humans have collected and mined them for the past 3000 years.

Diamond is cool to the touch because it conducts heat 5 times faster than copper.

In its pure form, Diamond is the most transparent material known – being able to reflect visible, infra-red, ultra-violet light and all frequencies in between.

Another property of Diamond crystals is that if you place them inside the human body, they will not trigger an immune response.

Interesting and impressive as these facts are, this is not why we love diamonds so much.

We love them because when they catch the light, they sparkle with such intensity and brilliance that it can take our breath away.

Because their beauty is so rare that it moves something deeply spiritual inside us.

Because gazing into them can cause us to lose time as we are completely lost in the moment.

Because we become immersed in their exquisite connection with us, which triggers a longing to hold them and gaze deeply into their core.

Diamonds remind us that there is magic in the world and it is here – right before our eyes.

They show us that the world can be a beautiful place and we are blessed to be able to witness it.

Diamonds, like the eyes of a loved one, help us to believe that there is more to existence than blood and bones…
