I disagree. They ARE pretty. Just not as pretty as a rose or a sunset and yeah best used as industrial tooling.
I would rate them above roses personally. Below a good sunset though; nearly nothing manmade beats those
Good sunsets are frequently man-made too, the most beautiful red glowing ones own their look to dust - air pollution.
Pedantry because funny: Diamonds and Roses aren’t man made either. On a more serious note, some things aren’t beautiful because they last but because they are fleeting.
Any rose you buy at a florist or other store is the product of centuries of selective breeding by horticulturists. So they are, in that sense, man-made. And now they're getting into genetic modification.
In fact, if you bought someone a dozen wild roses, they might be disappointed.
Really, virtually anything plant-related you can buy in a store is a human creation at least in part. We don't think of flowers we tend to grow and buy as domesticated, but they are.
Lots of diamonds are man made, and most people can't tell them apart from natural diamonds, especially without a microscope.
True. My wife specifically requested a Moissanite. Most engagement rings are (sadly) still natural diamond.
Ain't that the truth
Yeah, but have you seen an unprocessed diamond? They don't look all that interesting, especially when compared with other natural crystals. It certainly isn't what most people think of when they picture a diamond.
Yes, but you can't take a good sunset and put it somewhere where you can look at it whenever. Pictures don't really convey the full experience.
