History Of Synthetic Diamonds

Cut Glass was probably the first material used to simulate a diamond.  It is readily available, easy to cut and polish and when seen from a distance, looks good.  With all of the information available to today’s consumer trying to pass cut glass off as a diamond rarely works.  Cut glass is still seen in costume jewelry and in the movies today because of its extremely low cost.  The use of cut glass has widely been replaced by the most popular diamond alternative, cubic zirconium.

Facts About Rough Diamonds

Before the late 1800s diamonds were found in riverbeds and traded to noblemen who recognize the value of this hard crystal and utilized the diamonds for armor studding in their breast plates.  Later on kings and queens used the rough diamonds to adorn their crowns, tiaras and other jewelry.  They were not as beautiful as polish stones however, they were still prized for their beauty and uniqueness.

Rough diamonds are still in their natural form and have not been cut or polished.  Natural diamonds are found in Octhahedra, Cubic, Macle, and Dodecahedron crystal shapes.  Unless you have done some research into what rough diamonds look like it unlikely you would be able to spot a diamond in its natural setting. 

Context, Background, Meaning

Did context precede meaning or vice versa?

I. The Meaning-Egg and the Context-chicken

Did the Laws of Nature precede Nature or were they created with it, in the Big Bang? In other words, did they provide Nature with the context in which it unfolded? Some, like Max Tegmark, an MIT cosmologist, go as far as to say that mathematics is not merely the language which we use to describe the Universe - it is the Universe itself. The world is an amalgam of mathematical structures, according to him. The context is the meaning is the context ad infinitum.
