What is the name of the largest diamond discovered?

The largest rough diamond ever found is known as the Cullinan Diamond, discovered in South Africa in 1905 and in rough form weighed 3,106.75 carats. It is named after Sir Thomas Cullinan, owner of the Premier Diamond Mine where it was found. To date, it remains the largest diamond ever found. It fit into the palm of a grown man's hand. The Cullinan Diamond was cleaved by Joseph Asscher into two major diamonds, the Great Star of Africa (also known as Cullinan 1) which weighs 530.2 carats, and the Lesser Star of Africa ( (Cullinan 2), which weighs 317.40 carats. The rest of the Cullinan Diamond was cut into 103 other smaller diamonds. All are in the possession of England's Royal Family and as part of the Crown Regalia. The Great Star of Africa is the main jewel set in the head of the Royal Sceptre (known as the "Sceptre with the Cross") of the Crown Jewels of England, housed in the Tower of London. If you've never seen it, it is unbelievable how big it is; pictures don't do it justice. The Lesser Star of Africa is set in the Imperial State Crown of England, and while smaller, is equally impressive. While at one time the Great Star of Africa was also the largest cut/polished diamond, it has since been replaced in that title by the Golden Jubilee Diamond, which weighs 545 carats. It was presented in 1998 to the King of Thailand. There is no record of this stone's original, rough weight.

How much is 116 carats of uncut diamonds worth?

The value of a diamond depends on its cut, its clarity, its colour and its carat weight. Once the stones are faceted and polished, a certified gemologist can give you the answer you want. Uncut diamonds have no set value or consistent value based on size. This is because a diamond's value is only established once it's faceted and polished. A diamond cutter evaluates uncut diamonds and plans the cuts to maximize carat weight, while preserving the stone's other most valuable assets -- its clarity and colour. Then, when the diamond is cut, a price for it can be set.


How large is the worlds largest solitaire diamond?

Solitaire implies setting a diamond in a ring. There are large, hundreds-of-carats diamonds, which would look extremely vulgar being set in a ring, because no human hand could 'carry off' such a stone. Tip: When buying the 'largest solitaire,' consult with a designer who can help you choose a stone that will not overwhelm the hand of the intended wearer. (If you place an American cent or dime in the location where the ring will be worn, you will see how quickly a larger-than-that stone will overwhelm a human hand.)
