In real life[edit]

Historically, diamonds were ranked among the five cardinal gems. The others included amethyst (no longer as valued due to New World deposits), emerald, ruby, and sapphire. Its value has increased beyond that of the other precious gems since the 19th Century, most famously as a result of advertising campaigns.

Urist (and humans) love diamonds for their mind-numbingly beautiful shimmering.
