Do you remember from the 404 carat diamond record? It’s been bought by Fawaz Gruosi, the founder of de Grisogono. The jeweler based in Geneva (but was born in Lebanon to a Lebanese father and Italian mother) held a press conference in Dubai to announce the news with Executive Chairman of the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre and the Kimberley, Ahmed Bin Sulayem. The rough diamond acquired, through the Nemesis trading company, is one of the 30 largest high-quality diamond ever found. The stone is rare not only for its size but for its lack of color and flawless clarity. It will be interesting to find out how jeweler will cut a stone so remarkable.
Contrary to the traditional process, where the jewelers are limited to use polished stones that already exist on the market, now de Grisogono will have the opportunity to indicate the cutting process, maximizing the beauty of the end jewelry. “This diamond marks one of the most important stages of my career both as a jeweler who as a designer. Words can not express how much I and my team are grateful to Dmcc and Nemesis for such a unique collaboration”, said Gruosi. Federico Graglia
