Diamond rings have become very popular as engagement
rings in today’s world. These jewelries even have a rich history dating back to
the fifteenth century. A diamond ring was in fact used as a form of gift for
the first time when Australia’s Archduke Maximillian proposed Burgundy’s Mary a
diamond engagement ring as a mark of their engagement in 1477. It has been
since then that finger jewelries set with these precious stones are considered
as an object of good fortune for husbands and wives.
In 1870 when diamond mines were discovered in the country of
Africa, the market for diamond became more popularized. It was after this that
people started to present diamond rings quite often. However, if you
think that people from all strata and social class could present their spouse
with this piece of jewelry, you are wrong; it was a practice prevalent only
amongst the wealthy and the rich. Even today, it is the wealthy class who can
afford to buy and present diamond engagement rings to their spouse. Would you
like to present your beloved or the one whom you are planning to get married
with a diamond engagement ring?
