Because diamonds have no value and is a result from a massive advertising scheme from the early 20th century. They are quite common just like many other gems.
I’m a millennial and I work in digital marketing. I used to have a jeweler as a client. They were UNBELIEVABLY expensive. Their stuff was quality but they made Tiffany look affordable.
They wanted to appeal to millennials and I had to tell them that millennials flat out can’t afford their stuff. They seemed surprised. Whatever, man. That ring you just showed me is a year and a half of my salary and jewelry isn’t my thing. I got these earrings at Target. Keep selling to rich old ladies.
Because I’ve had a drink: I went to a meeting there once and they asked if I’ve heard of a nearby jeweler that uses recycled metals in his work. I said no but that sounds really cool. They could not understand why I thought using recycled materials was a good thing. I wanted to scream.
