The Diamond & The Engagement ...
Before the dawn of man, nature was at work creating its most unique and prized possession... the diamond. With all the changes in trends, the diamond still stands supreme as the strongest symbol of love.
It is pure, or nearly pure, carbon and it is the hardest transparent substance known, passing light uniquely as the most brilliant of all stones. The beauty and the qualities of the diamond make it ideal to represent the love of the engagement.
Since Maximilian I of Austria presented Mary of Burgundy with the first diamond engagement ring nearly 500 years ago, the diamond has become not only a girl's best friend, but a man's best friend, as well.
As for value, endurance and genuineness, the diamond passes all the tests, second to none. In fact, because no two are alike and their value is continuously increasing, diamonds are recognized as a very wise investment.
Obviously, a purchase of such significance requires careful consideration and the advice of a trustworthy authority.
At Marshman we pledge to honor that trust. We will assist you in selecting the size and quality that is best for you. We can show you how a diamond's value is not determined by size alone, but by five distinct characteristics, referred to as the Five C's.
