The ancient Greeks called the diamond "adamas", meaning invincible, indestructible, impeccable, and untamed. The fighters of Ancient Greece wore diamonds in battle because it is believed that the stones strengthened the muscles of the fighters and brought them invincibility.

According to Greek mythology, diamonds were created by Thei, also called Euryphaessa "wide-shining", the Titaness of sight and by extension the goddess who endowed gold, silver, and gemstones with their brilliance and intrinsic value.

Diamond has always been considered the stone of the winners. In fact, it was the talisman of Julius Caesar, Louis IV, and Napoleon.

While the diamond is considered the most durable gemstone, it is also considered a stone with exceptional powers that can penetrate us and open many spiritual doors. This is why diamonds symbolize the truth. They also represent perfection due to their indestructibility.

Over time, diamond jewelry has been thought to improve the wearer's life in many ways, especially by bringing clarity (perhaps related to the clarity of the stone itself) into the wearer's mind and life. This clarity is manifested in everyday life through clear and positive solutions to all problems.

Diamonds are believed to improve energy, the environment, the growth process, prosperity, love, faith, and endurance. The stone also attracts abundance, power, courage, strength, creativity, imagination, purity, harmony, faith, innocence, feelings of respect and self-love, and relationships full of pure love.
