The Castle Does It Again
Even
Charlie Sheen's 11-carat radiant cut $500,000 yellow diamond
engagement ring given to fiancee Brooke Mueller in 2007 pales in
comparison to the largest natural yellow diamond ring sold on October
8, 2008 by The Castle Jewelry in Lexington, Kentucky. At 10:30 a.m. an
armored Brinks truck rolled in with the ring and by 2:30 p.m. their
very special customer was wearing it.
The 17.49-carat GIA certified natural yellow diamond ring is valued at $1,250,000.
Yellow
diamonds are among the rarest and most beautiful jewels in the world
and are coveted by royalty, celebrities and high society to show their
personal style and as an expression of endless love.
Other celebrities known for their love of luxury and yellow diamond
jewelry include Elton John, Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Heidi Klum,
Seal, Mary J. Blige, Gwen Stefani, Eddie Murphy, America Ferrera,
Usher, Whoopi Goldberg, Julianne Moore, P Diddy, Cate Blanchett,
