RAPAPORT...  New Diamond Technology (NDT) unveiled a 10.07-carat lab-grown diamond that it claims is the world’s largest polished blue synthetic diamond.

The emerald-cut, fancy deep blue, SI1 stone was graded by the International Gemological Institute (IGI) in Antwerp and put on display at the Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair last week.

NDT, headquartered in St Petersburg, Russia, said it presented a 5.03-carat polished blue synthetic diamond at the Baselworld show in Switzerland in March. The stone was produced using the company’s high-pressure, high-temperature process.

In May last year, NDT claimed it manufactured the “world's largest known colorless lab-grown diamond,” weighing 10.02 carats and certified by IGI.
