There are famous songs about diamonds. "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" is a song sung by Marilyn Monroe. "Diamonds Are Forever" is a song sung by Shirley Bassey.
Amazing how the various cuts are laid out, then the diamond sculpted. I would guess it takes years of study and practice to get it right. All those fractions of carats cut and ground away.
The answer is giants. Giants. GIANTS! Back then, they had giants who just pinched the diamonds into shape with their giant long, hard fingernails. Well, been awhile, but that's how I remember it all happening. Then maybe I'm just trying to bee fun knee and can't even recall last week even! At least I tried to come up with some old diamond cutting 'answer' thing anyways.
Diamonds are forever as i am.
Great episode! I kept imagining the pink panther sneaking in and taking some of them. 😂

I'd Neal for a Diamond, "I Would, I Said, To No One There...".

How are they cut ??? ... Very carefully
Is there any difference in cutting, polishing, etc, between natural diamonds and lab grown diamonds?
Informative.
I'd like to know how it was done without the use of modern technology.

Do you know if lab diamonds can be "grown" so there is less cutting?
We have a video about this :) ruclips.net/video/upv72qcX2QY/видео.htmlsi=A5YGXmZMTL5APWax
Diamond are overpriced. Diamonds are not as rare as jewelers say they are. Buy manufactured diamonds instead. Less costly and they will last longer.
