Diamond beauty from the color of fire, its high refractive index, emerald beauty from it moist, transparent and moist. Emerald and diamond different, precisely reflects the Chinese culture and Western culture is different.

The main character of the Chinese people quiet, introverted, conservative Westerners main character is dynamic, assertive, aggressive, etc.. Therefore, since ancient times, the Westerners prefer red sapphires and diamonds, Asians preference jade.
