The Number One Selling Gemstone In The World! 💍

💍
Since all is revealed that I am into  natural color diamonds still diamonds be it white or colored is still is my favorite gemstone and the world would have to agree as white diamonds still is the most popular and number one selling gemstone.

But why?

 Well most diamond consumers are not connoisseurs, collectors & investors and their number reason why they purchase jewelry is to accessorize or for the sake of their own image. De Beers succesfully marketed diamonds as the ultimate engagement or proposal gift even though throughout the history of the civilized world, diamonds are not really invented as the focal point of engagement rings. Long before De Beers coined the famous phrase 'a diamond is forever' the center stone being used for engagement rings or any engagement presents could be any gems and some even use tooth! 

But why did white diamonds manage to be the most popular of gemstones and the number one selling center stone for engagement rings? 

 Well let make take you to a short summary of the company that is responsible for making diamonds the new KING OF GEMS! 👑

Aside from De Beers the answer to why diamonds became so popular is quite simple and with just one word; and that is beauty! Undeniably the sparkle, brilliance, adamantine luster & transparency of diamonds is unmatched & for most people a classic white diamond is the most beautiful gemstone in the world and even if De Beers would try to market a tooth as a center stone for engagement rings it will  only be popular for a while. In other words you cannot succesfully market something that doesn't appeal to many and interestingly it is in our instincts that we are attracted to something shiny and nothing shine & sparkles like a perfect diamond.

This Is The Perfect Song I'm Feeling Right Now!
Trivia: Did you know Shirley Bassey is the only singer in the world who's obligated to wear diamond jewelry or diamond jewelries provided by any jeweler everytime she sings her timeless song 'Diamonds Are Forever'? It is a crime for her and the diamond jewelers to let her sing that famous 007 James Bond Theme Song without wearing at least one diamond jewelry.

November Traditional Birthstone: Imperial Topaz

Image
T opaz is the traditional birthstone for November & it is one of the most popular gem varieties. Although topaz comes in all the colors of the rainbow from one of my personal favorite the very affordable blue topaz which is considered a semi-precious stone  to the very rare imperial topaz varieties considered as precious stones that comes in many different shades of colors except blue & topaz are durable enough to be worn on rings with a hardness of 8 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness. However only a yellow to golden yellow to orange varieties are known as the true birthstone for November. The jewelty industry recently added semi-precious stone Citrine as part of the November birthstone but it has no magical powers to November babies. Topaz comes in many different parts of the world but the finest imperial topaz tends to be exclusively found in fewer places like Russia & Brazil. Alot people confused topaz with citrine and they do have an uncanny similarity e

Practical Materialism💸

Am I Materialistic? That's a wonderful question ladies & gentlemen! Despite my recent aquisition of this extremely rare vivid orange diamond from Leibish & Co. I don't think I am materialistic  because materialistic people only care the most about expensive things and buying them for the sake of their image. Like people who buys a overpriced luxury leather goods or branded items like Havaiinas rubber flip flops over regular rubber flip flops or iPhones versus regular smartphones which work pretty much desame and you still can't fuck both, or people who only takes care of imported expensive breed of dogs or cats and totally avoid regular ordinary pets or those who only wear branded clothes and underwear like Victoria's Secret lingeries which people would never see anyway. These idiots are the real materialistic because they are concerned of their image! They buy unecessary things or spend their money to feed their bruised & fake egos and then show them

Lost Ancient Philippine Goldsmith Technique

Image
Last June  I blogged  about the lost ancient goldsmithing technique of ancient filipinos that no modern jewelers could replicate that are being displayed at The Bangko Sentral Ng Pilipinas Museum and Ayala Museum in Makati.  Today there is a revival of that lost jewelry making technique but no matter how hard modern jewelers tried to replicate the old ways of jewelry making they cannot copy an exact replica coz they've been missing something that we no longer have in modern times and I have this feeling that the ancient filipino goldsmiths are using ancient alien technology to make elaborate jewelries.  The granulation technique of the ancient filipino jewelries is the best in the history of mankind! Even better than the Etruscans. The tiny well rounded symmetrical granules must have been made by some laser and anti gravity thingy of some sort of  lost ancient alien technology. The fact that the ancient designs could not be totally copied by even he best of modern
