[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So in circles of true wealth, diamonds are tacky. I don't wear any at all. When i need to go to an event I usually wear emeralds.[/quote]

[b]I am a Mayflower descendent. [/b] DAR. My ancestor signed the Declaration of Independence. We are a longterm wealthy family and have managed to maintain the wealth. Diamonds are handed down through generations. I assure you we wear them. I would never wear an emerald. Though there are some sapphires in the mix. That said, we aren't particularly showy. More pearls than diamonds. But for you to say in "circles of true wealth" makes me think you are those who came after us and were the climbers. [/quote]

So am I. What are the odds? Pretty low I'd say, because I don't know anyone of that class who would use the word "climbers" in this way.

At any rate, I'd buy lab diamonds today. It is what makes sense, especially given the ethics of mining. Oh, and emeralds are beautiful -- if they are good enough for a wedding gift from Charles to Diana, they are probably good enough for you. I have a lovely ring from one of my grandmothers; it is a bit beat up, as emerald rings can get, but I love it. Not sure what this "I would never wear an emerald" bs is. Sounds stupid. [/quote]
