The Spirit Of The Rose

The stone was cut from the largest pink crystal ever mined in Russia which is currently the world's most important diamond producer by volume. The 27.85-carat clear pink rough diamond was itself called the "Nijinsky", a nod to the legendary dancer and his acclaimed performance as the "Rose" in the original Ballets Russes performance.

The rough diamond was unearthed by ALROSA - one of the world's leading diamond producers - from the Ebelyakh deposit in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) in the northeast of Russia in July 2017. Russia has a long and rich tradition of gem-cutting and it took a whole year for Alrosa cutting masters to turn the diamond into its polished form. The oval shape was chosen in order to ensure that the diamond would be of the maximum possible size, while the dozens of facets would also emphasize the stone's gentle, rose-petal colour.
