Imagine a diamond so flawless and so great in size that the world's diamond experts cannot put a price on it. The De Beers Millennium Star.
Discovered in the Republic of the Congo, De Beers mined the Star in the early nineties. It took over three years for their diamond cutters to shape the stone with lasers. What emerged was the world's only internally and externally flawless, 203-carat, pear-shaped diamond.
Harry Oppenheimer, the doyen of the diamond industry, describes the De Beers Millennium Star as "the most beautiful diamond I have ever seen". Appropriately called the De Beers Millennium Star, it was unveiled as the centerpiece of the De Beers Millennium diamond collection. The entire collection includes eleven equally rare blue diamonds totaling 118 carats, as well as the 27-carat Heart of Eternity.
De Beers created the collection as a way to symbolize the world's hopes and dreams for the future. The astonishing collection remained on display throughout the year 2000 at London's Millennium Dome.
