| has gloss | eng: The Krupp Diamond is a stone, last sold at Sothebys on May 16, 1968, for $305,000, to Welsh actor Richard Burton. Burton gave the stone to English-American actress Dame Elizabeth Taylor, his wife at that time. She has worn it since and has stated it is her favorite piece. The Krupp Diamond and other famous pieces of jewelry has since become part of Taylors image. It is an emerald cut, with length and width proportions which are closer to that of an Asscher cut. It also has a fairly large culet facet, indicating it was likely cut before the 1920s, when culet facets were being phased out. |
