Diamonds are not only talked about, they are even sung about by legendary Marilyn Monroe. The world-known phrase "Diamonds are a girl's best friend" belongs to this stunning blonde from the movie "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes". After this fantastic movie not only gentlemen started to prefer blondes but also women became fond of diamonds. The dress Marilyn were singing a song in were sold for a staggering $314,000 on 14 June, 2010 in Hollywood. The price was higher than expected and beat the barrier of $250,000.
It seems Marilyn was a part of a huge diamond advertising campaign which was rather successful in those days as well as in our days. And it's clear why since diamond is a special stone so neatly created by nature where just a single chemical element carbon could transfer into flawless most solid and beautiful stone in the world. Though a greater part of diamonds is intended for industrial needs, that little part of cut and polished diamond gems could capture women's hearts forever.
Still something has changed since the time of Marilyn Monroe singing that really helped to make diamonds to be "a girl's best friend". Diamonds are affordable now! This became possible due to contemporary technologies like high temperature high pressure (HTHP) and carbon vapor deposition (CVD) technologies. Competent scientists could immitate the conditions needed to form diamond (in case of HTHP) and found the very point when carbon crystallized into real diamond stone (with the help of CVD technology). So, man can grow real diamonds now, absolutely the same as those mined from under the ground. As the process of growing is less consuming than mining the price for created diamonds is lower, thus more women can be happy wearing diamond jewelry.
Wish you not just hear about diamonds but wear them
