A 910-carat diamond, which is believed to be the world’s fifth largest diamond, has been unearthed in Lesotho.

The stone was discovered in Letseng mine by Gem Diamonds, a UK miner with operations in Botswana and Lesotho.

Clifford Elphick, Gem Diamonds’ chief executive, says the find is a “landmark discovery” and is the largest diamond ever mined by the company. Gem Diamonds shared rose 15% after news of the find.

This is just the latest find by Gem Diamonds. In Aug. 2006, the company mined “Lesotho Promise,” a 603-carat diamond in Letseng mine. At an auction in Antwerp, Belgium less than two months later, Lesotho Promise was sold for $12.3 million—around $20,000 per carat. Analysts say the newly discovered 910-carat diamond could be worth as much as $40 million.

With the “Times Up” movement sweeping through Hollywood, we were all interested as to how much affect this would have on the night’s Red Carpet fashion.  With all of Hollywood’s leading ladies opting for black dresses, we were excited to see that many of the celebrities went with oversized, statement, and stand out diamond jewelry pieces.  One of the most noticeable trends of the night was the Emerald, and we have to say, we love how these ladies made the night all about those sparkling accessories!  We are predicting that diamond statement earrings are going to be a big client request in 2018!
