A collection of fancy yellow diamonds are to be exhibited on Bloor Street in Toronto from May 2nd to May 6th. The collection is estimated to be worth $10million & is the largest collection of yellow diamonds to have ever been exhibited in the 133-year history of the Birks luxury jewelry chain. More than 60 pieces of diamond jewellery will be on display including a rare 15ct internally flawless, fancy intense, radiant-cut yellow diamond set in a platinum ring. As yellow diamonds are so rare, this beautiful ring is expected to sell for a lot of money! Yellow diamonds are very popular amongst celebrities and the royal family, which isn’t surprising as they’re such beautiful stones.

DiamondGeezer.com have launched their new collection of coloured stone & diamond rings, they may not be yellow diamonds but they’re certainly stunning diamond rings!

The 400 year old, 34.98ct “Beau Sancy” is one of the world’s oldest, most famous & most storied diamonds. The jewel is currently on display in Paris, soon to be moved to London & then to end up in Sotheby’s Auction in Geneva on May 14th. The “Beau Sancy” is colourless with 110 facets & was the first ever diamond to be cut into a pear-shape making it even more spectacular.

Lord of Sancy bought the “Beau Sancy” for his wife, Marie de Medici, who was one of the richest women in Europe and part of the  famous Medici family of Italy. Sadly, Medici’s husband was murdered & she lost all of her wealth & in 1604 was forced to sell the diamond to King Henry IV of France for 80,000 florins. The diamond was passed through Henry’s descendants and many royal families of Europe.

May 14th will be a very lucky day for the person who buys this treasured diamond.
