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.

diamond shines due to TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION.
It is the phenomena when a light Ray travel from rearer to denser medium and the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle then the light tends to reflect in the denser medium itself causing diamond to shine.
