Diamond is forever
Natural diamonds were formed billions years age. Some diamonds may even be born right after the birth of the Earth. They were formed deep deep down under the ground with Over 1,000 degrees temperature and constant pressure. Then they reach the surface through fierce volcanic eruptions and became the diamond we see today - the hardest gemstone that can only be cut with another diamond.
That’s why we say: a diamond is forever.
