I understand the avoidance of diamonds because of where they can come from, but there ARE other places diamonds come from.

May 25th, 2007 · 11:46 AM · #My fiance and I were against diamonds for the ring partially for political reasons but also because we’re just not into the hype. I resent being pressured by all the ads and the magazines and the wedding industrial complex. He ended up finding me a lovely antique sapphire ring, and it was really cool to research and learn that sappires were a traditional engagement ring choice long before diamonds became the thing to have as a result of heavy De Beers advertising in the 1930s.
