Jewels, which any woman today does not go without, have conceived a lot of time ago. For ancients jewels were not of great importance, comparing with that they have today for us. They trusted that jewelry carries certain magic sense, that it somehow protects humans from malicious charms, from afflictions and even from physical attacks. Partly this tradition was carried to present day. Different jewels people endowed with different features. Diamond was one of them. Diamond - a jewel that worth the highest cost. Naturally there are white, transparent and color diamonds. Color diamonds can be of various tints - blue, dark blue, pink, red, yellow, orange and even black. But they are extremely rare and cost fabulously much. Clarity influence on the jewel price too- the more pure it is, the more expensive it is. Although it is impossible to find clear diamond without natural dirt, it there should not contain them much; otherwise it will have bad effect on jewel characteristics.
More often diamonds have yellow tint and the more it shown the less jewels worth. As a jewel diamond has received the spreading several centuries ago when a man has learned to work it. After passing faceting, diamond becomes a brilliant. The most full diamond facet has 57 edges and imparts exclusive shine to a stone.
Bewitching and desired, exclusive and attracting, during all history of mankind, Diamonds drew attention to themselves. Not faceted diamonds decorated an armour of great knights, and faceted - decorated crowns of regal persons. Owners of brilliants were admired, were envied and at the same time were delighted at all times: diamond ear rings sparkled on notable ladies at a courtyard, rings with brilliants emphasized elegance of ladies' fingers and delighted one’s surround.
Now, the "Perfect" crystal has a meaning of true love and a betrothal symbol, besides it is considered as a favorable subject for investments. All changes in the world - the importance and cost of brilliants are not subject.
The first diamonds have been found in an extreme antiquity in India. The Greek bronze figurine which eyes are made of not polished diamonds is stored in the British geological museum in London. The age of a figurine is dated 480 year B.C.
In the beginning of Renaissance diamond has come to Europe surrounded with loud, fantastic glory. It became a symbol of riches and authority, shined in scepters and crowns of tsars, on magnificent clothes and toilets of ladies, decorated the weapon of orthodox military leaders.
In 16 century brilliant considered to be talisman, capable to strengthen love of the husband to the wife. In the Talmud the stone which under the description meets to a brilliant, belonged to the Supreme priest and was used to pronounce sentence. If accused was guilty - the stone grew dull, if he was not – the stone started to shine more brightly, than usually.
