“The diamond is to the pearl as the sun is to the moon,where the first is known as the king gem and the other the ‘queen gem’.The diamond like a knight of old brilliant and resistant,is the emblem of fearlessness and invincibility,the pearl,like a lady of old is the emblem of modesty and purity.It does not seem unfitting that the diamond should be presented as a token to the pearl,and that pearls should go with the diamond.”
