History: The earliest diamonds were found in India in 4th century BC, although the youngest of these deposits were formed 900 million years ago. A majority of these early stones were transported along the network of trade routes that connected India and China, commonly known as the Silk Road.
3600 BC: Gold is first smelted in ancient Egypt. 2600 BC: Egyptian hieroglyphs describe gold as being “more plentiful than dirt”. The earliest known map dates from this time and shows the plan of a gold mine.
History. The history or white gold dates back to 1710, when German alchemists proposed the theory of how it might be created. However, It wasn't until the 19th Century when manufacturers alloyed gold with palladium to create the white gold we know today.
