It wasn&#8217;t until a famous advertising campaign by the diamond company De Beers in 1947 that a diamond became popularized and arguably solidified as the one true symbol of \u201clove\u201d.

It makes sense, diamonds are the hardest substance known to man, which beautifully represents the strength and endurance of the bond of love. Many people also find the symbolism in the long journey of a diamond\u2019s creation to be incredibly meaningful.
