They are beautiful. They steadfastly remain a girl’s and a woman’s most faithful friends. And they are also quite amicable towards men, who give them as gifts to celebrate birthdays or anniversaries: precisely cut diamonds, sparkling with fiery incandescence, never lose their tempting charm. Whether as the central gem in an engagement-ring, as a lavish row in a necklace, or as a brilliant eye-catcher on the wrist: diamond jewellery can be continually reinvented. Incidentally, the latest jewellery trends prove that the diversity of colours and cuts go far beyond classical white diamonds and catapult the desirability and radiance of these precious gems into infinity.
