The history of diamond jewelry
Diamond jewelry has enjoyed and desired for centuries. However, it was not until about 500 years ago that art and science of diamond cutting was born. Most of the stones that find their way into Diamond Wedding Rings are cut and valued in the Belgian city of Antwerp, which has been the center of the diamond business since the mid-1500s.
The DeBeers company – formed in 1880 by Sir Cecil Rhodes, for whom was African colony Rhodesia (now independent Zimbabwe and Zambia) was named – was instrumental in creating an artificial market for diamond jewelry, in particular diamond Ring Wedding sets, where none had existed before. It is true that Archduke Maximilian of Austria presented his bride, Mary of Burgundy a diamond wedding ring on the occasion of their wedding in 1477, but that does not set a general precedent. That precedent had to wait another 423 years.
"Diamonds eternity "
The phrase "a diamond is forever," became the basis not only of a James Bond novel by Ian Fleming and the movie and the song came out of it, but the most brilliant advertising campaign of all time. The DeBeers company uses this phrase to convince the public to abandon the gold bands was clear that traditional married couples for centuries, and embrace their fashion line design diamond ring Wedding Sets.
The campaign was remarkably successful in a few years, plain gold bands had been replaced by diamond Wedding Bands and rings with stones attached.
A similar campaign was carried out by the industry of the U.S. diamond jewelry, the market was aimed at married couples. The idea was to convince the American public a tradition of "old" in which the men wore Diamond Rings and their girlfriends. This particular campaign was rather less successful, but helped increase the popularity of diamond wedding rings among American couples.
