This is the largest square emerald cut diamond in the world, at 302.37 carats
After more than 18 months spent analyzing, cutting, and polishing, Graff has revealed the 302.37-carat Graff Lesedi La Rona, the principal stone cut from the historic 1,109-carat Lesedi La Rona rough diamond it acquired in 2017.
“There is a huge amount of good fortune involved in unearthing a rough diamond of this extraordinary beauty and importance,” said Laurence Graff, founder of Graff Diamonds, in a news release. “Cutting a diamond of this size is an art form, the ultimate art of sculpture,” Graff said. “It is the riskiest form of art because you can never add and you can never cover up a mistake, you can only take away. You have to be careful and you have to be perfect.”
