38 Carat Christina Onassis Diamond
July 15th, 2008
Imagine toting this 38 carat pear-shaped diamond around your neck. Sure, it’s gorgeous, but the weight would be unbearable after a few hours of social time, and you’d have to take a bodyguard along for the ride (course, that might not be a bad thing, depending on the bodyguard). I think I could be perfectly happy with a one or two-carat pear instead. The diamond was once owned by Christina Onassis (do you think she ever wore it?) and sold recently at Christie’s International in London, fetching a hefty $7.1 million. Christie’s auctioned over forty pieces of jewelry owned by the Onassis family, with sales totaling about $13.5 million.
