Big Diamond
An extraordinarily big diamond is very rare and continues to become even more rare as diamond mines are depleted. Discoveries of large diamonds are well publicized, often making headlines. Many have a history that fascinate and intrigue as well. One of the most famous is The Cullinan, found in South Africa in 1905. It weighed a pound and a half, or 3,106 carats. Throughout history, famously big diamonds have been cut into one important stone and multiple additional polished diamonds. The Cullinan was no exception. It was cut into nine major diamonds; the largest was 530.20 carats and became known as the Star of Africa and was set into the British royal scepter. The ownership of exceptionally large diamonds and of very big diamond rings is usually traceable because there are very few of them in existence.
