Details

A wonderful little stone linked to its big brother, the Sancy. It has been in existence since at least 1589, making it one of the more ancient famous diamonds. Unlike other diamonds, its provenance (at least since 1589) is well known. However, its weight has been reported to be from 34-38 carats depending on the reference. The replica here was based off of Morel (1988), 34.5 carats.
