Diamond and Pearls

Diamonds and pearls are a very interesting combination of jewels when set together. The diamond being the hardest gem stone of all and the Pearl being the only living gem stone. Apart from sharing individual uniqueness they also share other common but less well known attributes.

A diamond is the hardest gemstone known to man and takes hundred's of million's of years to form. For every diamond that is mined there is only a very, very small percentage that are of gemstone quality with the majority of the diamonds going to other purposes; such as being used in a wide variety of industries like IT and computer technology, and even for medical purposes.

Diamonds are even used today in Nano technology to help cure humans of deadly diseases like cancer because they are the perfect vehicles to carry more accurate doses of chemotherapy to cancer patients. The cancer patients suffer fewer side effects because of the lower dose required to kill the actual cancer cells while limiting the peripheral damage to healthy cells.

The pearl in some countries like China and other Asian countries is also used for medicinal purposes too. It gets ground up and added to various herbal medicines to keep humans healthy. So the diamond and the Pearl share another common denominator apart from beauty in a jewellery setting.

South Sea Pearls are produced in North Australian waters from Cape York around the Australian coastline and across to Broome in Western Australia. Pearling licences are restricted in Australia so this makes it a very lucrative operation and industry for those who are fortunate enough to own the majority of the pearling licences like Paspaley Pearls. Over the years they have bought out most of the limited licences and are now known worldwide as the biggest and best producers of south sea pearls. And there is no doubt about it that the pearls are fat, lustrous and vibrant.

So when the diamond and pearls meet in thoughtful well designed jewellery settings the lustre of the pearls is the perfect bed for the sparkle of diamonds.
