DIAMOND

The ancient Greeks believed that diamonds were splinters of stars, fallen to earth to endow the wearer with love and joy. Traditionally the emblem of fearlessness, it is also symbolic of love. The hardest natural substance, it is possible that they have been mined since 800BC.

DID YOU KNOW

The ancient Persians believed that the Earth rested on an enormous sapphire, and it was the reflection that coloured
the sky. Occurring in a myriad of colours, all Corundum is called Sapphire, with the exception of the red Ruby, and the extremely rare orange-pink padparadscha. The term sapphire is usually associated with the colour blue, so it is fair to assume that all historic references relate to the blue gemstone.
Next to diamond, sapphire is the hardest mineral on earth.

DIAMOND: A BRIEF HISTORY

India was the earliest source of diamonds, possibly being mined there as early as 800BC, with world production shifting to Brazil after the Spanish Conquest. Synthetic diamonds have been produced commercially since 1960. Through technology we have been able to approximate the age of the Cullinan, one of the world's biggest diamonds, at between 1.6 to 1.7 billion years old. The largest diamond ever found weighed 3106 carats.

MEANING BEHIND THE STONE

Diamond is said to enhance all the energies in the body, mind and spirit, thus helping with alignment with the Higher Self.
