The Ashberg Diamond
The Ashberg Diamond weighs 102.49 carats and has a truly amber color. At one time it was part of the ancient Czarist Crown Jewels but during the Russian Revolution it was taken to Sweden. There it was purchased by a Swedish collector whose name was Ashberg. He gave it his own name and finally put it on exhibit in 1949. Subsequently, the House of Tabbah sold it to another private collector. A diamond of this size and unusual coloring is very rare. When it has a history which connects it with dethroned royalty it develops an aura of mystique.
The Aurengzeb Emerald
The Blue Lili
The Blue Lili is a famous intense blue 30.06 carat diamond.
Although by no means the largest blue diamond ever registered, it is considered by many to be the finest because its certificate categorizes it as the largest internally flawless blue diamond in the world. An interesting sidelight to the naming of the Blue Lili is that the diamond cutter named it to honor his wife Lili, hence the name Blue Lili.
The Nirvana Diamonds
Nirvana I, II, III. The three Nirvana stones are all heart shaped "D" Flawless and of 111.22, 76.47 and 36.20 carats respectively. The first of these three is the largest heart shaped diamond in the world. Although the three were not cut from one rough it appears they came from the same mine and were found at the same time. The name Nirvana was chosen because in Buddhist terms Nirvana represents a state of supreme bliss. The owner once stated that he had chosen the name not because the stones themselves represented this state, but that his family gave him the feeling of bliss and he numbered them one, two and three, in accordance with oriental custom in naming family members.
The Zanskar Sapphire
The Zanskar Sapphire weighs 77.67 carats which makes it a most outstanding jewel. It comes from the Zanskar Mountains in the Himalayas and is considered to be one of the finest quality sapphires anywhere. Tabbah sold it to a private collector in Switzerland.
The Earth Star
The Earth Star is a 111.59 carats pear shaped brown diamond and thought to be the largest in the world. It’s color is more like coffee than brown. It was cut from a 248.90 carats rough in 1967.
