rare beyond beautiful


this beauty sold at an astonishing £6.2 million at an auction by Sotheby's in Geneva recently. i can't imagine how anyone would easily part with that amount of money, unless they're bloody rich and consider £6 million to be merely peanuts.

i guess that's the price to pay to obtain something that nobody else has. plus you get to name the diamond! =D

which got me to thinking. if i owned a beauty like this in real life, would i keep it for myself (it being the subject of rarity) or sell it off at a humungous profit? i mean, i could happily live off £6.2 million comfortably for i dunno, a good number of years? (provided i don't spend like no tomorrow, haha).

hmm... anyone willing to get me one? =P~
