Natural diamond is a miracle of nature, existed long before any life on Earth. They were formed one to three billion years ago under high pressure/ high temperature 160 kilometers underground and began their own amazing journey. With the well design and craftmanship of the designer, these unique natural treasures turn into the dazzling natural diamond engagement rings, stud earrings, pendants and other jewellery.

In the 4th to 6th centuries BC, the first diamond was discovered in India, which is nearly millions of years since natural diamonds came to the earth's surface through centuries long volcanic eruptions.

Natural diamonds buried deep in underground volcanic conduits are hard to find. The discovery of these precious natural diamonds were traded to Europe and China along the Silk Road, becoming a symbol of the supremacy of kings and queens at that time. For thousands of years, they have symbolized lasting power, and "Diamond” the name comes from the ancient Greek word "adamas", which means "invincible".

Natural diamonds are one of the hardest natural substances on earth. Its cutting and polishing process began in the 14th century, but could only cut and polish according to the natural grain of the diamond. Only in the 15th century, diamond powder was discovered as a polishing substance to polish the rough, and this process is still in use today.

The history of diamonds has been rewritten since 1477, when Archduke Maximillian of Austria proposed to Mary, Princess of Burgundy, France with the first ever natural diamond engagement ring. Since then, this precious natural gemstone has taken on a new identity, representing commitment, romance, and eternal love. To this day, natural diamonds are still symbols of enduring love, unrivaled strength, and natural purity. Every natural diamond is as unique as an individual. Today, natural diamonds are passed down as family heirlooms, connecting the stories and experiences of each generation. The amazing journey of billions of years carried by natural diamonds can lead you back to the beginning of the earth.
