- As if its beauty didn’t already exceed expectations, this enormous pink diamond also sold well over its estimated price. This 11-carat pink cushion cut Fancy Vivid Pink Star diamond from the Williamson Mine in Tanzania sold at auction for more than $57 million. Would you believe it’s not the most expensive ever sold? Sotheby’s says a similar diamond sold for $71 million in 2017. Experts estimated this diamond would fetch around $21 million. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.
Absolutely gorgeous diamond😍
I need to start digging… wish I found a colorful rock worth more than I’ll ever make in my life time(s).
What's sad is probably not even Tanzania will see a cent come from this auction 😔 💔
I've never seen a scent either! only smelled one 😆
@@kendallelizabeth1168 I see what you did there. 😂
@@kendallelizabeth1168 😂 omg I caught my mistake

It's completely obscene to spend that kind of money for a jewel, when there's so much aid to poor and hungry in this world 🌎
And Socialism won’t help either
Well said.
Amen!! That's were my thoughts go! Crazy how many women want things like this just bc of the price! There's too much greed in this world!! One thing I can say is that I feel blessed that I grew up in a household where we didn't have much bc you appreciate what's important and money isn't everything!!
@@jessicarenae5107 I find it nature's exquisite art...that is why I DREAM OF IT !!
@@alessandramarc285 well i guess looking at it that way is better then just wanting it for materialistic reasons and I'm an artist so I understand your point... but it's so crazy expensive lol
Any diamond over 1k is overvalued
That’s your wallet talking
Tanzania should get a percentage 🙁
Now, imagine losing that.
Imagine not having insurance on something worth 50 million dollars
Now, imagine being a target and getting robbed
I love it 💗
Blood diamond
We value rocks more than we value people
We value ourselves rather than mother nature
Well duhh ...
I wouldn't give a damn about people either if I had a priceless and big pink diamond like that.
For a flawed diamond, it's just a shiny rock. Water has real value, you can't live without it.
Love this.
It will burn to thin air if you know how to do it, in the air!
Nobody is asking u to buy it
@@Friedchicke I said something wrong by commenting on the outrageous price tag for a shiny rock?
@@royhunt1690 it's a comment from the poor class in society. If am billionaire I will not hesitate to get it. Why not,? Life is about enjoying or it's a waste, unless you can't afford certain or many things
This looks like something out of pink panther.
You know how many people you could feed with that
This bro ^
Like me for my entire life
Bro I would have paid $58 million for that beauty of a diamond
Only if you had
Did the people who mined that diamond get any of that 57 million dollars ? Were any of the proceeds used to feed any of the starving , hungry people of Tanzania ?
Yes they did
Crazy rich Asians!
And the Tanzanian guy who dug it out of the ground made $6.50 USD... before paying for his room and board at the mine.
Omg stunning!
That's a really beautiful diamond😍
I can appreciate a diamond but this diamond won't appreciate in value because only a few people in the world can afford it!! No rock is worth $57million I would've bought a dump truck full of gold before I bought this thing🤷♂️🤯
too bad the owner can't take the diamond with them when they die. 💎
I wonder who benefits from this purchase besides the wearer? Maybe the people of Tanzania? Yeah right, these greedy pigs will never let that happen
Fish people…bleh. Why not give to charities instead of this stupid gem. SMH.
It’s gorgeous!
someone call lil uzi
I had between 600-700 of those on CoinMasters the other night & all they got was 120 free spins, some free cards & some XP potion for my pets. 😒
Obviously a Saudi Prince bought that
I wonder which banks is insane enough to secure it for the owner for a price.
That's the only ring I want.. 💍 if I don't get that I don't want a ring..
Diamonds aren't worth anything. Gold is much better.
The girl who got this is so lucky
" It's called a blood diamond "
.
What is the home address of buyer? 😅
Reminds me of Steven universe 💎💖
And people die dig it up from the ground
Wow 😍
Way too Damm much. Waste of money
Tanzania home of gems
And the miners spend a whole day digging to get slightly 10$!!! This is krazzzy
Wow it’s from 🇹🇿
That's just a disgusting amount of money to spend on a rock. I'd buy a house and a few necessities and give most of the money away if I had that kind of money.
wooow 😱😱😁😁😁👍
Better not tell Uzi.
THAT IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE DIAMOND EVER SOLD IN AUCTION. FOR 11.5 CARATS IT WAS SOLD FOR $57.7 MILLION OR $5.2 MILLION PER CARAT. THE PINK STAR DIAMOND WAS SOLD FOR $71.2 MILLION DOLLARS BUT IT WEIGH 59.6 CARATS AND MORE THAN 5X AS BIG AS THE WILLIAMSON PINK STAR. THE PINK STAR WAS SOLD FOR $1.2 MILLION PER CARAT IF WE DIVIDE $71.2 MILLION BY 59.6 CARATS.
i can only imagine how many times this prolly has been stolen from the real owner
Well you’re wasting your imagination. This isn’t the Koh-I-noor it doesn’t have an illustrious history.
It’s fairly recent too. It’s only had one owner, the company that owns the Williamson mine in Tanzania. It wasn’t stolen from anyone, it was mined and sold by the company.
They can make diamonds in the labs it’s not like they’re rare
A FANCY PINK DIAMOND HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY PENULTIMATE DREAM 🙏🌹
I wish I had a pink diamond ring
THIS IS ACTUALLY THE MOST EXPENSIVE DIAMOND SOLD AT AN AUCTION. AT 11.5 CARATS IT WAS SOLD FOR $57.7 MILLION OR $5 MILLION PER CARATS. THE PINK STAR DIAMOND ALTHOUGH IT WAS SOLD FOR $71.2 MILLION WAS 59.6 CARATS AND MORE THAN 5X BIGGER THAN WILLIAMSON PINK STAR AND IF WE DIVIDE $71.2 MILLION BY 59.6 CARATS IT WILL COME OUT TO $1.2 MILLION.
crazy as
Hii
Taken from Tanzania and not even .001 percent of the profit will be given back to the peoples whose land you took it from.
Gorgeous!
Where is ELLE WOODS (Legally Blonde) I know she’ll definitely want it
Cool
Ring
What a scam. One of the oldest in history in fact.. De Beers marketing of the most common gem on the planet is on an epic scale for continuing to reel in the suckers to this very day!
ooooooooo ahhhhhhhhh
I bet the guy who dug it up didn’t get much for that
Lil Uzi's forehead replacement.
Who knows how many kids have died of hunger miles from where this was sourced
Tanzania my second county ❤️🇹🇿🇹🇿
Beautiful
You can buy fakes ones that look just as amazing and if you lose it no biggie buy another
That’s fucken beautiful!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
Need to stop getting our Damian From Africa
Imagine if that would somehow fall out of your hand/pocket and fall into a drain 😬
Let's hope that doesn't happen lol
Stunning, just wow💍💍💍💍
Wheres my shovel? I need to start digging.
First
Souls have gone into taking that from the earth….
Ah I want one. Will you take $100?

danggg it’s so pretty i want it ,
phoebe can't relate
It is quite lovely
Holy maracas, that is one valuable gem; Lord knows I could use that much dough.
50th Comment
I own 13 of these
I would rather buy more food than buying a ring that cost 58 million dollars
The only reason you say that is because you don’t have that kind of money
While I'm scrounging up $5.70 for gas 😂😭
A rock
I’m sure JLo has her sights set on this from her next loser hubby 😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
i would never wear pink it's not my color. I am an opal lady my birthstone is far prettier than that.
E.
Shhesh
wat da
I love how people spend tens of millions of dollars for a pink rock instead of using that money to help the world
That is how they save money ( hide it from tex )
Imagine paying millions for a rock the size of a penny, that you could lose instantly or become a target for thiefs.
Need to research expensive stones and art and how it’s all a tax scam !!
This is why some of us wanna strip the wealth from the obscenely wealthy. Spending this kind of money on a useless rock that can be made in a lab is just stupid as hell.
so it’s there money cry about it 😂 (why you jealous)
@@CoolClipsAnimations it’s “their” not “there” and if you can’t handle basic spelling and grammar then I don’t think I wanna waste my time in a socioeconomic debate with you.
@@alpeterson ok you still know what am saying. That’s literally the only thing you can pick out because you know am right.
@@CoolClipsAnimations yikes… lol
Let me word this is a way you can understand.
I know you am stupid. I know am waste time talk to you. You cartoon bad.
Imagine people just selling it for £5 on ebay
The pink diamond look beautiful
Who has 57 million dollars to buy that madness 🎉
Probably some oil sheikh
Stunning!!
I'd be to scared to wear it anywhere though!
It's just a rock
@@mcdragon0123 you don't need to comment the same comment over n over we get it's just a rock!😂
@@nobodyknows9619 Sorry, I'm just bored and went to comment the same thing to other people, but its true though 🤣😂😭
@@mcdragon0123 its a solid carbon created in high pressure bruh. Meaning, its a mineral created in high pressure. If you consider minerals a rock, I don't know anymore. And by the way, before you teach or correct somebody, do your research first.🙂
@@prestonplayz5446 That's just a fancy way of saying rock, you just proved my point, thanks! 😂🤣 loser
Cringe af 🤓
How is this cringe? It's litereally a diamond.

Over priced junk do you know that diamonds where worthless till some one started advertising them ,
steven universe pink diamond lol
People have way too much money.

@@CoolClipsAnimations very conducive. Wonder if you'd say that to a kid in Somalia these days.
@@koach7779 bruh everyone can’t have the same amount of wealth
