More than five hundred years ago, the diamond engagement ring first adorned a betrothal. The Archduke of Hamburg, Maximilian gave Mary of Burgundy a diamond ring the world had never seen before to see their impending marriage. For the centuries that followed, such an extravagant gift could only be given by the upper class. It was royalty and then emerging trading class that had the wealth to commission such expensive symbols of love. Diamonds were a rare commodity. These engagement rings were adorned with diamonds and usually had love messages written in colored gemstones. These were also crafted by the master artisans of the lands. If you saw someone with a diamond engagement ring, you knew that woman was rich and powerful.
Engagement rings centered around the diamond after one of the greatest discoveries two years ago. About 140 years ago, miners found areas in South Africa and Brazil with extensive deposits of diamonds. These deposits were so massive that a new mining technique had to be used, which enabled the mining of these stones to occur at a low cost. This in turn caused the value of diamonds to plunge, making everyone have a chance owning a diamond. This discovery of the deposits and technique allowed, for the first time in history, all incomes to have accesses to diamond engagement rings. All budgets can now find a diamond that can be afforded. This has continued since those discoveries.
