Off topic alert...

For all her millions, she chooses to wear simple and elegant jewellery pieces instead of more showy and blingy pieces.

That's on top of her non-grabby take her ex-husband for as much as she was able to or entitled to for their divorce, and then giving away a big chunk to charities.

I like her!

+1!!!

Even more off topic:

Also I was upset about articles where it was portrayed as if she got *gasp* half his money.

They married before Amazon, she worked together with him on and at Amazon when it was in a garage, then they raised four kids together, one of which they adopted.

In my personal book that whole fortune is *their* life's fortune as a family and it struck me as odd and misogynistic that anyone would be astounded that half their fortune as a couple was hers.

That's my sentiments too, in that she walked away with only a fraction of what I too believe she was entitled to, being with him through thick and thin from the onset of the successes that is Amazon.

I wish her all the happiness (and successes) in future - a truly remarkable lady.

managed to find clearer photos. Back to the questions, how many carats?

dk168 · Sep 6, 2020

I would guess the stones are at least 10pt a piece, and the total carat weight in the region of 10ct+, depending on length.

Take a look at the tennis necklace thread by @missy in Hangout, as it contains some useful information with regard to tennis necklaces.

Assume the length is 16inches, Deduct one inch for clasp. Roughly 380 mm in 15 inches. 10pt stone are 3mm so around 120-125 stones. They could be 15 pt stones... but that's the basic math.
