Diamonds Are Forever

Bond gem film

Diamonds Are Forever is a phrase asserting that diamonds are eternal—unlike flowers or other gifts that fade.

The saying originated as a 1947 De Beers advertising slogan, becoming one of the most successful marketing campaigns ever.

It's also the title of a 1971 James Bond film.

The phrase now appears in contexts about permanence, commitment, or the diamond industry's grip on engagement traditions.
