Brown diamonds come from mines allover the world although the Australian Argyle Mine is currently the largest producer. Brown diamonds are the most common diamond in the earth and should, ands used to be, the cheapest to buy. Also, Chocolate Gold, is a coating just like rhodium plating and will wear off.
Now back to our regularly schedules programming.

So glad I am not the only one that finds them ugly. The commercials are atrocious too.
One was women love chocolate and diamonds so buy her a chocolate diamond for holiday. I have forgotten which holiday. Note that was from the jewelry store I mentioned in another post.
