Eternity of Love

Since the 19th century, the heart shape has been used on Valentine's Day and popular culture artifacts as a symbol of romantic love. Diamond has always been denoted as pure and eternal, symbolising enduring love; a heart shaped diamond sublimates the notion of a diamond’s purity and eternity to the next level. To name a few of the fabled heart-shaped diamonds, the “Heart of Eternity” is a fancy vivid blue diamond weighing 27.64 carats; the renowned “Cullinan V” is a heart-shaped diamond weighing 18.80 carats which was set in a brooch of Queen Mary and perhaps one of the favourite pieces worn by Queen Elizabeth II; and “The Centenary Diamond” weighing 273.85 carats was cut from the third largest diamond rough produced in the Premier Mine, loaned to the Tower of London for display for a number of years. In recent years, heart-shaped diamond was adorned by celebrities like Beyoncé Knowles, Nicole Richie and lately, Lady Gaga was presented with a heart-shaped diamond engagement ring by actor Taylor Kinney on Valentine’s Day in 2015.

It takes years of experience and requires great skills to cut the cleft between the two lobes of the heart-shaped diamond. If a heart-shaped diamond is too flat then it creates illusion of a bigger diamond; however, this diminishes its brilliance compared to a heart-shaped diamond with more depth. Thus, diamond cutter needs to strike a balance between the size and brilliance while giving shape to a heart-shaped diamond. Tiancheng International is pleased to present a heart-shaped diamond of tremendous size - 25.72 carats with the most desirable D colour, displaying excellent polish and symmetry, the two lobes of a heart shape diamond abide together which echoes a proverb from Buddhism, "Love is a gift of one's inner most soul to another so both can be whole”, reminiscing the passionate love of a romantic relationship can be and the eternity of love for all mankind.
