Giving a diamond engagment ring is a wonderful tradition that goes back ages. It represents a pledge between two people to be married. The fact that the engagement ring is diamond and not wood or pebble stone is reflective of the specialness of the relationship and committment.

You could argue that almost any tradition is conditioning. So what! I prefer diamonds, others may want two camels and a goat. All I know is that where I come from a diamond ring is the preferred choice, it has been, and will probably remain such for some time to come.
