Diamonds became popular as ornaments in jewelry in the 1400's and the different techniques and styles of diamond cuts such as the Rosecut Diamond were gradually developed over many years. The Rosecut diamond is one of the simplest cuts for the gem and has been in use since at least the 1500s. Created to resemble an opening rose-bud and often in a triangular shape, it is one of the most useful styles for use in the complex diamond bracelets, particularly for the symmetrical, radiating patters that feature in polki jewellery, Hyderabad jewellery and in the Victorian and art deco jewellery styles.
Symbolism & Meaning of Diamonds
The use of a combination of gold and diamonds in India has a long history and is perhaps partly influenced by the Hindu belief in the purity of gold with its suggestions of immortality and partly because India is the place where diamonds were first mined. The traditional properties closely associated with diamonds are action, passion, and energy. Jewelry containing diamonds are believed to enhance relationships, increasing inner strength and provide the wearer with balance, clarity and abundance. Wearing jewelry containing a diamond will focus the energies of the precious gemstone through the gem.
Diamonds are also believed to have the properties of action, passion and energy. Wearing jewellery, such as a diamond bracelet, is believed to enhance relationships and to keep or regain a lover's favour. It is a stone of balance, clarity and abundance and keeps its value, which makes it a popular choice for bridal jewellery and estate jewellery.
