Vanessa WHO???

[aljdewey]

Wow, it''s easy to overlook Vanessa''s little trinket when ones view this one!

"Supermodel Iman, wife of David Bowie, wears a necklace topped with a 203-carat diamond, worth $75.5 million, at a Tokyo department store. It took more than three years to grind the originally 770-carat gem from a Congo mine."

It's not hers--she's just modeling it.

That is the De Beers Millennium Star. I have heard that it has been sold but I'm sure the buyer prefers to remain private (as is usually the case with really notable stones).

Wow! She can really carry it off though. Even though it is not hers, I certainly think between the two of them, they could afford it.

It looks lovely on Iman, who's almost 6' tall, but if looped around *my* skinny neck, at exactly 5', it would hang to my bellybutton, and look ridiculous besides!

I'm quite happy with my almost 1 carat OMC!

Though I wouldn't mind have a *suite* of OMC's!

I think the design of the necklace is really striking as well.

 

[tiggerlgh]

I wouldn't mind wearing that for even a little while!

I thought the same thing. Very Moderne & I love the white metal.

I just can't get the picture of that big diamond hanging next to Win's belly button out of my mind.

That would make a great avatar, Win.

 

[winyan]

*lol* I'd have to figure out a good way to photoshop it, Richard!

Hmmm...could be a fun project, will let you know how I make out!

LOL Win! I'm looking forward to seeing your new avatar!

Beautiful diamond... The model isn't that bad either!
