Early European civilization, Romans started gifting rings as a symbol of love and loyalty at the time of engagement. However, those engagement rings were not diamond rings. Initially, it was started with iron rings in which women kept keys as a symbol of ownership of their husbands. Gradually, gold replaced iron as the roman women started wearing engagement rings as an ornament.

Diamonds in an engagement ring was not trendy at that time. Diamonds were pretty rare at that time and only very rich can afford a diamond ring. The rock Archduke Maximilian of Austria gifted a diamond engagement ring  to Mary of Burgundy in 1477 was an early exception.

Miners began discovering huge veins of diamonds in South Africa in 1870's and the rarest gemstone became available for common men. De Beers popularized setting diamonds in an engagement ring since 1930. They started campaigning  for "A diamond is forever" in 1947 and since then diamond engagement rings became popular in America as a symbol of eternal love.
