An Enormous Extraterrestrial Diamond Comes to Auction
Quote:
An interstellar diamond that blasted to earth from either a supernovae explosion or a meteor is now coming to auction. At 555.55 carats (it fills the palm of a hand), the Enigma diamond is too large to wear, but it does make for a great conversation piece.
Dating from 2.6 to 3.8 billion years ago, the stone is a carbonado black diamond, according to the GIA report. These unique diamonds contain traces of nitrogen, hydrogen, which is abundant in interstellar space, and, osbornite, a mineral exclusively found in meteors. That confirms it didn’t come from this earth.
The Enigma diamond is valued between $4 million and $7 million but could go much higher because of its record-breaking size and history. It will be offered at Sotheby’s online sale from February 3-9, and they are accepting cryptocurrency for payment.
“This diamond is a true natural phenomenon,” says Nikita Binani, Sotheby’s Jewelry Specialist and Head of Sale in London. “Its sale represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire one of the rarest, billion-year-old cosmic wonders known to humankind.”
