Pink sapphire birthstone6/19/2023 Diamonds are often sold back to dealers and retailers and are then recut, reshaped, reset, repolished, and remounted into beautiful new settings and sold as “new” diamonds. Nearly every diamond that has been mined is still in circulation today. With that being said, chances are, the diamond you are wearing on your finger has been worn before. So, when you are looking at diamonds in the jewelry store, you can’t tell if that diamond is “used.” In fact, 1 in 10 diamonds, possibly even more that you see in jewelry stores are pre-owned stones. As a result, you can not tell the difference between a diamond worn 300 years ago from a diamond freshly mined. The most wonderful quality about diamonds is that they are one of the only types of physical matter on this earth that do not wear and tear. A diamond may be forever, but that doesn’t mean it has to remain with the same owner forever.
