❤️💎“Diamonds are forever,” they say, a symbol of enduring love.💎 ❤️ Yes, diamonds are nominally durable. But they’re combustible and thermodynamically unstable: imperceptibly and inevitably turning into graphite.  Cement, on the other hand, is inflammable, thermodynamically stable, and gets asymptotically stronger over time. What could be a better symbol for true love?    Sublime Cement®, rather than being forged under pressure in the bowels of the earth, is being created with precision technology. With the hope of building a better world — one in which people want to be, one in which we build with pride and shelter each other from the harshest elements.  While we aren’t in the business of selling cement jewelry (yet), we’ve found an incredible artist who is. We’re giving away a favorite piece from Shaham Hadas’s line to raise awareness for the lovable material that is cement. To enter the giveaway for this heart cement necklace, like this post and make sure you are following Sublime on LinkedIn, plus comment or reshare this post for a bonus entry in the drawing. We’ll pick the winner by next Friday 2/21 and will announce soon after! #CementisForever #StrongerOverTime #ValentinesDay #KeepBuilding
