Certified diamond fashion tend to have fewer of these tiny imperfections than mainstream stones. The less a antique engagement ring is ‘included’ the better it is able to reflect the light which passes through it, which intensifies it’s beauty and fire.
The precise origin of diamond stud earrings is still not truly known. However, it is believed that the first antique engagement ring ever discovered in South Africa was done so by a fifteen year old boy by the name of Erasmus Jacobs. While searching for a stick to clear a drain one day, he picked up a stone sparkling in the sunlight and gave it to his sister. It was seen by a friend of the family and was ultimately discovered to be a 21.25 carat stone.
