Diamonds have been for years the number one stone it comes to jewelry. The sparkle, the fire and the life that a diamond bring to any jewelry piece it is still unbeatable. The size of the diamond also makes a huge difference on any piece. When we shop around for engagement rings, for example, rings with stones around one to two carats are considered a very good size. When we talk about celebrities, this number seems to jump from 2 carats to 10 carats diamond stones.

But how about if you come across a 3.106 carat diamond? Yes, the largest diamond ever discovered in over 530 carats. The Cullian I, how this unique beauty is called, was found in a mine in South Africa owned by Thomas Cullian, in 1905, by Captain Frederick. It was only nine meters from the surface. Thinking the miners were playing a joke, Wells took it for a piece of broken glass and pried it out with a pocketknife. Later, the stone was sold to the Transvaal provincial government, which presented the stone to Britain’s King Edward VII as a birthday gift. King Edward entrusted the cutting of the Cullinan to Joseph Asscher, head of the Asscher Diamond Company of Amsterdam. The stone was cut into hie large stones. The biggest one is called the “Star of Africa I,” or “Cullinan I,” and at 530 carats, it is the largest-cut fine-quality colorless diamond in the world. The Cullinan II is 317 carats, both stones are on display in the Tower of London.
