Why a Diamond? |
| A diamond is the ultimate symbol of commitment and love. Why does a diamond ring on your finger mean your heart is pledged to another? Why a ring at all, for that matter? Although diamonds have been around for millennia the tradition of giving a diamond engagement ring dates back to 1477, when Archduke Maximillian of Austria gave one to Mary of Burgandy as a promise of marriage. This charming royal notion was copied by nobles around the world. Today, it is as much a part of the marriage tradition as the wedding itself. | ||
