  • It’s not just a piece of jewelry. It’s practically a natural wonder. This 11-carat pink, cushion-cut diamond called the Williamson Pink Star will surely stun bidders when it goes up for auction in October. Sotheby’s says it was mined in Tanzania and expected to fetch around $21 million when it hits the block in Hong Kong. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.

    Everytime I watched content like this, I had flashbacks of the movie blood diamond. It seems someone mined it then sells it for less than £100, but the jewelry company can sell it to $21million. It seems unfair but that is life right? Poor vs rich the gap is exceptionally like heaven and hell.
