The Biggest Diamond in the World

The world’ biggest-ever diamond has been discovered in South Africa on July 27th by a mining company. BBC reported that a shareholder in the unnamed mine said they have dug the stone in the north-west province on Monday afternoon.

The giant diamond was about 7,000 carats – twice the size of the Cullinan Diamond, centre-piece of the British crown jewels. In the photographs it seems to be about the size of a coconut and has a greenish tinge.

But still the industry experts are skeptical about the unconfirmed claim.

By the words of another shareholder at the mine, Brett Jolly, the gem had been taken to a bank vault in Johannesburg.

Experts say the find would be the stone of the century, if genuine.

Jewellery & Clothes

Recently, a very close partnership between jewellery companies and celebrities has come to existence. More and more jewellery designers choose a celebrity that would best fit and promote their collections. Doing so, they have found an easier way to advertise their products gaining not only a trade mark brand, but also a famous face that would be recognizable and associated with a certain brand product. Such is the case with Lazare Diamonds that had a recent collaboration with Ritsuko Shirahama, an eminent Japanese designer. The idea was the diamond manufacturer to create a unique and one-of-a-kind evening diamond jacket for her at the cost of $1 million. This exceptional acquisition is amazingly embellished with 2000 perfectly cut Lazare diamonds, forming beautiful curves on the surface of the jacket, with a total content of 300 carats. There are also two pounds of platinum supporting its stunning look. The jacket is planned to make a world tour and soon to appear in the US retail shops.
