History of Diamonds

In this new episode, we take a look at the best-known and most widely used gemstone in Jewellery: the Diamond.
In this first part devoted to history, we'll travel from the mines of India to those of South Africa, and we'll see that the diamond market has undergone a number of changes over time.
