What does the "heart shape" conjure up in your mind? For many of us, we think of love and romance. This shape has effectively worked it's way into St. Valentine's day, our greeting cards and presents, and into the design of our jewelry items as well. Jewelry is often made from gold, silver, diamonds, [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] emeralds, rubies, etc., but by adding the "heart shape" into the mix we add the concepts of love, romance, caring and belonging as well. In this article we will explore the world of heart jewelry, the "heart shape" as a symbol, and take a peak at the world's most famous heart-shaped diamond.
For [url=http://www.lotogame.fr/hollisterfrance.php]hollister pas cher[/url] years and years the heart symbol has been used to refer to not only the spiritual and emotional, but also the moral and intellectual core of a human being. It is usually colored "red" as this suggests not only blood (which the heart is responsible for pumping thorough the body), but strong emotions like passion and what emotion can possibly be stronger than that of true love?
Finding a true heart-shaped diamond is a rare event, [url=http://www.lotogame.fr/hollisterfrance.php]www.lotogame.fr/hollisterfrance.php[/url] but they do exist. For example, the most rare and famous of these is the "Blue Heart" (also called the Eugenie Blue) diamond. Many people consider it to be the best example of a blue diamond [url=http://www.lotogame.fr/hollisterfrance.php]hollister france[/url] that the world has ever seen. The only diamond that can rival its fame is perhaps the Hope Diamond, [url=http://www.femmesexenue.fr]louboutin[/url] but with the unique heart shape of [url=http://www.marrakech-hotel.fr]hollister france[/url] the "Blue Heart", it [url=http://www.tagverts.com/barbour.php]www.tagverts.com/barbour.php[/url] really stands out in the crowd. From the standpoint of pure elegance and simplicity, there are few diamonds that can hold a candle to the "Blue Heart".
Weighing in [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/abercrombie/]abercrombie[/url] at 30.82 [url=http://www.lotogame.fr/louboutin-pas-cher/]louboutin pas cher[/url] metric carats, it's debatable whether the "Blue Heart" diamond is of African or Indian origin. Antanik Ekyanan cut the rough diamond in Neuilly, Paris in either 1909 or 1910. The dimensions of this beautiful gem are: 20mm x 19mm x 12mm.
An Argentinian woman named Mrs. Unzue sold the diamond to Cartier in 1910. [url=http://www.mquin.com/pjsdoudoune.php]parajumpers pas cher[/url] She had set the [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour sale[/url] diamond into a corsage, and it was in this setting when it was [url=http://www.tagverts.com/barbour.php]barbour deutschland[/url] sold to Van Cleef and Arpels in 1953.
The next stop of this precious heart jewelry gem was an European family, who then [url=http://www.villazuki.it]woolrich outlet online[/url] sold it to a gentleman named Harry Winston. The year was 1959, and he placed this diamond into a ring, and subsequently sold it to Marjorie Merriweather Post. Marjorie Merriweather Post eventually donated it to the Smithsonian Institution located in Washington, D.C. It is here at the Smithsonian that this wonderful example of heart jewelry is currently on display. As a [url=http://www.riad-marrakesh.fr]www.riad-marrakesh.fr[/url] bit of nostalgic history and trivia, it's interesting to note that at one point the Blue Heart Diamond, the Hope Diamond, and the Heart of Eternity [url=http://www.teatrodeoro.com/hollisterde.php]hollister online shop[/url] were all on display at the Smithsonian Institution.
