A brief history of the heart-shaped diamond
Heart-shaped diamonds are a symbol of everlasting love, passion, and commitment. Their unique cut is a testament to centuries of craftsmanship and boasts an illustrious past with its royal lineage. In 1463, the world was introduced to the enchanting allure of heart-shaped diamonds during discreet conversations between the Duke of Milan, Galeazzo Maria Sforza, and his trusted confidant, Nicodemo.
Their discussions revolved around a remarkable heart-shaped diamond that had captured their attention. It was during one of these dialogues that Sforza, to convey the value of literary treasures owned by the affluent and influential Cosimo de Medici, made a striking analogy: "He treasures a Titus Livy (referring to the works of the Roman historian Livy) as dearly as one might treasure a heart-shaped diamond."
This captivating historical account unveils the existence of heart-shaped diamonds as far back as the mid-1400s. The appeal of these heart-shaped gemstones, with their regal charm, quickly transcended royal circles and became a coveted symbol of extravagance, sought after by aristocrats of means who yearned to possess such opulent treasures.
