The “Pink Star Diamond” is set to go to auction on the 13th of November.
The Pink Star Diamond |
Found by the DeBeers group in Africa in 1999, it took the Steinmetz Group 20 months to cut and polish this Treasure.
Now that we have admired, drooled, and coveted this Gem...Why is it Pink and not Clear?
This is a Type ll stone, meaning that it is the product of “plastic deformation”-pressure changes that result in structural deformities resulting in the coloration...The most intense, and numerous, Pinks come from the Argyle mines in Australia, but have been known to be found in Africa-obviously-and Brazil.
