Answer:

diamond has cuts that reflects light in a zig-zag pattern.

Wood is plain surface and it reflects light in only one direction.

So diamond appears shiny and not wood.

Answer:

The sparkling isn't just the high refractive index - the shape matters too. Diamonds are cut so that a light ray falling on the diamond is reflected multiple times inside the diamond and therefore sends light out in all directions. Actually, diamonds don't shine, they reflect.
