lab grown diamonds

[Rock]

My Wife wears a beautiful 125 yo diamond engagement ring originally worn by my grandmother. The size and quality of the diamonds in it are nothing special and I would venture to say that whatever intrinsic 'value' the ring has lies solely in it's curiosity value as an antique piece. For my Wife (and I) however, it is rightly a treasured item that represents something entirely different. It will of course, be passed down to the next generation. Diamonds are common as glass and the most price-inflated item on the planet (after maybe Rolex) The 'value' is all in the eye (and heart) of the beholder.
