Did you know that diamonds are billions of years old? That the largest gems found on earth are weighed in terms of carats or grammes, but that in the space there are diamonds as large as planets? That Black diamonds are extra-terrestrial? That there is a tree that can indicate the location of diamond deposits? Diamonds are not rare as they used to be, their production has gone from few thousand carats to well over 100 million carats per year in the last century or so. The most expensive diamond ever sold was worth over 4 million US dollars per carat, that's a lot of money for a tiny stone, isn't it? Diamond is no longer the hardest material, but it still retains the crown among natural stones. In this chronology-like book, you'll find many of these incredible facts and much more. Come and discover the rich history of the king of all gems: facts, superstitions, values and trends. Throughout its long cohabitation with human beings, diamonds have often ended up gracing the hands of powerful men and women. Read about how their trade evolved in the past 3 millennia, from the small alluvial deposits in Ancient India to the global market.
