For more than two thousand years and up until the eighteenth century, India was the only source of diamonds known to the world. This book, in five sections, looks at the diamond tradition in India from ancient times to the present. Through text and pictures its many aspects come to life: the myths and legends, the great stones, the fabled jewellery, the secrets of the trade and contemporary interpretations of the tradition.
Lavishly illustrated with examples from museums, private collections and collections from jewelers, the book encapsulates the romance of the diamond in India.
