Diamonds tells the story behind one of the world's most precious stones.

In partnership with the Natural Diamond Council, Assouline launches its latest coffee table book, Diamonds: Diamond Stories, that tells the story of the precious gem's billion year-old history and its mark on our culture today through fashion, art, and beyond. From <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/watches/bulgari-serpenti-seduttori-new-watch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bulgari's legendary Serpenti</a> to the Tiffany Diamond worn recently by <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/beyonce-jay-z-tiffany-and-co-about-love-campaign-fall-winter-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beyonc&eacute;</a>, Diamonds unfolds the stories behind the ever-opulent stone.
A universal symbol of luxury and affluence, Diamonds aims to celebrate the use of the precious stone as an everday indulgence. The book, now available via <a href="https://www.assouline.com/products/diamonds-diamond-stories" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assouline</a>, features stories of diamond connoiseurs from <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/marilyn-monroe-media-legacy-nude-playboy-photos-body" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marilyn Monroe</a> to <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/elizabeth-taylor-jewelry-diamonds-cartier-bulgari" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elizabeth Taylor</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/nick-jonas-snacks-on-wife-priyanka-chopra-cheeky-instagram-post" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Priyanka Chopra</a> to Offset. And as they say, trends come and go&mdash;but diamonds are forever.

The book sheds light on the rich history of some of the world's most famous and precious jewels, from the 34.98-carat&nbsp;Beau Sancy diamond from India with its astonishing 400 year-old history to the glorious 24.04 carat Moon of Baroda diamond that mades its surprise appearance around Marilyn Monroe's neck in the hit-movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.&nbsp;
