Fun Fashion Fact
Proposing marriage with a ring goes back centuries. But it is said that Archduke Maximilian of Austria is one of the first people on record to have proposed with a diamond ring. In fact, it wasn’t until the mid-1800s, when diamonds were discovered in British provinces in South Africa, that diamond engagement rings really gained in popularity. Until then the most popular rings featured other gemstones, often birthstones.
