Allegedly recovered from the legendary King Solomon’s Mines, the uncut, rough tone was acquired in 1544 by the scandalous De Luc
a family. Gifted as part of a dowry in 1612, the fate of the diamond, along with several other high profile gems, were
unknown after the Franco-Spanish war of 1635, before it mysteriously reappeared over three centuries later.
Sold last year to the Moretti Brothers jewellers for just over £22 million, neither time
nor conflict have dimmed its brilliance. Indeed, the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggest that the value of the now cut and polished 90 carat diamond has already increased by at least 50%. It will be on display for four weeks only.
