“You are my life -my past, present and future is here with you”.

Trilogy Rings are three stone diamond rings. They are a popular choice for an engagement or anniversary ring, as the three stones traditionally represent the past, present and future of a relationship and denotes lasting commitment. The centre stone of  the rings are usually the biggest ones and represents the present.  What a beautiful idea for a ring!

Trilogy Rings are also increasingly popular as right-hand rings, because of their elegance and beauty. They have become popular amongst the rich and famous as well: Madonna wears one with round diamonds totalling five carats, while Toni Braxton has an oval-shaped centre stone with heart-shaped side stones totalling 4.5 carats.

When choosing your ring think about the stones you are choosing. They can be made up of diamonds, gemstones or even both.

Here at DiamondGeezer.com you can choose any stone, any metal, and any size. Even design your own for the one you love, make it extra special!

Antwerp Diamond Centre is to release a stalled shipment of gems worth $200 million.

Some $200 million (£128.5 million) worth of diamonds has been released by a regulatory body in Belgium after a trading organisation lost its license.

According to Israeli Diamond Industry, the shipment of rough diamonds was seized because Brink, the organisation managing the transfer, had to commence bankruptcy proceedings for its Cash in Transit company earlier in November, with its license to trade revoked as a result.

The stones were held at Zaventem Airport under the authority of the Antwerp Diamond Centre (AWDC), an international regulatory body for the industry, after it raised financial concerns over the issue.

An open letter from the AWDC stated that the stalled shipment paralysed the distribution chain of rough gems, causing a great deal of damage to the sector, adding "Antwerp cannot be held hostage in this conflict any longer."

Last week, two rough diamonds mined in Lesotho, southern Africa were sold for $22.7 million, while a 4.68-carat rough blue diamond went for $4155,000 per carat – a record value for a gemstone from that site.

American comedienne Joan Rivers was in attendance at a diamond event at Chatsworth House.

Joan Rivers made an appearance at a diamond jewellery event in Derbyshire last weekend.

According to Professional Jeweller, the American television personality was seen taking part in Find a Diamond, a game that challenges people to find a gemstone in a vat of rings.

The Chatsworth House CW Sellors' Christmas Wishes jewellery and watches display raised money for British charities including the NSPCC and the Air Ambulance.

Rivers was quoted as saying that the day was "fabulous".

Also in attendance was the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire, who was awarded a bejewelled bumble bee to honour her 90th birthday.

Another high-profile jewellery event next week will see rare pink diamond ring go under the hammer at a Sotheby's auction in a luxury Swiss hotel.

The item is estimated to be worth £17 million and is set to become the most valuable jewel ever to be bid upon.

It was first sold by famous American jeweller Harry Winston some 60 years ago. 

A rare red diamond is included in a collection of gems that has recently gone on display at the American Museum of Natural History in New York.

The stone, which is one of only three in the world that weighs more than five carats, is especially sought-after due to its bright hue, the curator of the Earth and Planetary Sciences Department at the museum told LiveScience.

"What people are looking for are vivid colours," George Harlow remarked, adding: "Brown as a gemstone doesn't grab people's fancy."

The stone is believed to have been discovered in South Africa in the 1920s and was confiscated by the Nazis during the second world war, before more recently being purchased by US jewellery firm the Kazanjian Brothers in 2007.

It is the latest diamond-related item to go on display in the US, after the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History unveiled a necklace containing hundreds of diamonds that can now be viewed alongside the famous Hope Diamond.
