拍品专文

Diamonds occur in all sorts of shapes, sizes and colours, but very occasionally one comes across a stone that has quite exceptional charm. The diamond being offered here is one such example. It appears, if anything, larger than fourteen carats, and has extraordinary brilliance as well as innate purity that sets it apart from other diamonds. Interestingly, it is not type IIa, but has many of the characteristics associated with this variety.
It is difficult to put into words how this particular diamond is different to others. We therefore invite you to view the stone and are cretain you will agree that it is indeed 'special.'
It is not by chance that it was mounted by one of the finest jewellers of the 20th century, as only such a House would have access to rarities of this quality.
