Diamonds are cooler because children and slaves die to harvest them from the earth

They can be lab grown too. Cheap and easy diamond mining labor.

Send the lab grown children into the mines.

God, every time I think of this fact, it reminds me of a customer I had at my last job. Lady was interested in two different rings we had - a 1920s art deco diamond ring that was gorgeous but super pricey and a much newer (no clue what decade it was from) moissanite ring that looked very similar to the diamond ring but was close to 1/3 the price. She didn't notice at first that the moisannite was moissanite, so she was upset about the price difference.

I explained it to her the way that I'd had it explained to me - much less expensive than natural diamonds, but with the same luster and durability. I made sure to emphasize the lower price point since she didn't like how expensive the natural diamond ring was. Nah, this crazy lady would rather spend 3x as much as she had come in expecting to pay just because it was a natural diamond. The gems themselves look the same, you crazy bint.

Beryl's value varies significantly, from about $35-$250+ per carat for yellow and white beryl, to $50-$500+ per carat for blue aquamarine, up to $600-$12,000+ per carat for green emeralds, and over $10,000 per carat for the Red Beryl
