RAPAPORT... De Grisogono, a Swiss jeweler, acquired the rights to market a
404-carat rough diamond from Dubai-based trader Nemesis International,
Bloomberg reported.
The stone was discovered at Lucapa Diamond Company’s Lulo
mine in Angola, the report said, citing Nickolas Polak, a director of Nemesis
International.
Polak declined to disclose a price, but in February
Lucapa said it sold
a 404-carat diamond for $16 million (AUD 22.5 million).
The stone is the world’s 27th-largest and should take six
months to cut, the report said, citing Omar Chaoui, De Grisogono’s managing
director for Middle East and India.
