In the market for a piece of statement jewelry? Would 302.37 carats of diamond be enough of a statement for you? Graff Diamonds announced Wednesday that the largest square emerald cut diamond in the world is available for sale. The price was not disclosed.
The finished stone, named Graff Lesedi La Rona, is the principal diamond from the 1,109 carat Lesedi La Rona rough diamond found in 2015 in Botswana. Lucara Diamond Corp. sold the Lesedi La Rona to Graff Diamonds for $53 million—a cool $47,777 per carat—in 2017.
