The Graff Lesedi La Rona was cut from the second biggest rough diamond ever found – the 1,109 carat Lesedi La Rona, found in Botswana in 2015.

It has a top D colour grade, meaning it is colourless – a trait which makes a diamond more valuable.

Graff chairman Laurence Graff said: My love affair with diamonds is life-long and crafting the Graff Lesedi La Rona has been an honour.

This diamond, our diamond, is beyond words.
