Last month, it was Oscar time yet again. The one night in the year where celebrities never wear their own clothes, instead being fought over by some of the worlds leading designers who literally pay to give their clothes away in the hope of a photo opportunity with a big name celebrity. Alongside the stunning gowns, shoes and accesories, journalists always look out for the most sparkling, expensive and outragous jewelry.
This year was no different, our winner of the night was an incredible rough and polished diamond sautoir necklace designed by L’Wren Scott and worn by Nicole Kidman.
The wonderful piece of jewelty was worn throughout the evening by Kidman as she was one of the leading event hosts for the night. The necklace contained over 7500 gems (7645 to be precise) including a range of rough, faceted, and polished diamonds. The creator estimated the total weight of the diamonds was just under an amazing 1400 carats. The incredible design and structure needed over 6200 man hours to complete.
What can we say apart from lucky lucky Nicole. However I’m sure she was heartbroken enough (and so punished enough) to have to hand back the necklace at the end of the evening.

An amazing story came to light last week about desire, passion, romance and unity. Generally people see diamonds in a focused light, they’re can be cold and hard, but precious and valuable. The story begins with 13 women of Jewelia who each were unable to afford a 15-carat diamond necklace on their own so they each contributed $1,200 into the kitty and bought it together just like a time-share.
The agreement is that for the investment, each woman has the necklace for 28 days a year, crazy ? maybe…
They named the necklace “Jewelia” in honor of Julia Child, the famous TV chef, who lived in a retirement home not far from the women’s hometown of Ventura, Calif. crazy, yes i think so, but then at least for 28 days in the year each women gets to feel like a celebrity!
Pop diva Beyonce has gone all wedding bling bling, her diamond engagement ring is an estimited 18-carat diamond which comes complete with a £2.5m price tag
in the field of diamond jewellery, pop and rap stars simply dont do ‘understated’. When fiance Jay-Z decided on a wedding ring for his love Beyonce Knowles, it came as absolutely no surprise that he ignored the more traditional gold band and instead chose a stunning £2.5m diamond.
But the seven-figure price tag will barely dent the bank balance of the 38-year-old musician, who last year earned an estimated £41million. The celebrity couple had a secret wedding April this year.
Mohammed Cimark, who runs Precious Gems and Jewels, said: ‘If it is 18 carats then it’s a lovely size, an exceptional diamond. It’s clearly a premium stone. ‘You can’t recognise the colour from the photo and the clarity is hard to see, but the best clarity is internally flawless. ‘I would need to look at this through the magnifying glass to know if it was flawless – but it would be quite rare, especially with a diamond this size.’
