Please Gen Z, finish killing this Industry off.
Trust us we are. It’s not like we can afford them anyway
And even if we could, why buy some stone to wear if one could buy 10l gas for the same price?
My gf asked me to not give her a ring when I’ll propose, but a zweihander instead :D
A diamond sword is going to cost a hell of a lot more.
Just craft one yourself, it’s not that hard. Chop a few trees for the wood, craft the workbench, dig down a bit for the diamonds and there you go!
Honestly, fuck diamonds in general. Normalize jewelry with unnatural laboratory gems. The old gems are boring, bring on the synthetic glowy gems.
Edit: damn, you can get chunks of reject sapphire made for F35 fighter jet windows on their new store. They’ve got some pieces over 1kg.
Diamonds are great…
…as tools in the hands of the working class.
Technically man-made diamonds are also the diamond industry.
