Think of a diamond and the words "love","luxury" and "expensive" spring to mind. Today they are not only for the wealthy. With new technology the diversity of diamonds is making them even more popular and affordable.

The belief that diamonds are expensive because they are so rare is a fallacy. There are enough diamonds to fill a cup for everyone. The truth is that strict control is placed on the quantity of diamonds produced for sale worldwide. They are made of carbon buried deep in the earth under intense pressure and heat. Loose diamonds are the hardest known substance. They do not break, crack or chip easily but can be cut by a single blow. India began mining diamonds over 1,000 years ago. Today 90% of the jewellery is made from diamonds mined in South African countries with the rest coming from Australia, South America, Canada and Russia.

It is important that you choose a diamond bracelet with the right proportions. For example a wearer with a slender wrist usually looks better with more delicate diamond jewellery, while someone with a slighty thicker wrist will set off more chunky designs.

Style is imperative. Know your model. Someone with a classic wardrobe and traditional tastes will probably prefer more contemporary styles while someone with an eye on the latest fashions might go for something ultra modern.
