Ahh, yes. The 4 C's of a diamond. Cut, color, carat weight and clarity.

Then somebody cooked up a marketing campaign for "chocolate diamonds". Make women actually desire diamonds with crappy color and clarity. Damned if it didn't work too!

"Ah yes, the [polished] turd of the diamond world."

As a Diamond Collector AND a Chocolate Lover, I tried really, REALLY hard to like that stone, but you're right - Ug-Lee! I DO give Le Vian Bonus Points for some brilliant marketing, though!

But the jewelry companies advertise them as “chocolate” diamonds and make them seem special...goes to show that some folks have enough money, and little enough sense, that you can shine a turd and sell it to them....
