Treasured Jewels
Laurence Graff has been enchanted by yellow diamonds since the founding years of Graff. His passion was ignited with the Star of Bombay in 1974, and the Graff name has since become synonymous with the world’s finest yellow diamonds. An impressive roster of important and famous yellow jewels has passed through the House, and we continue to create remarkable jewels that honour and revere these natural wonders.
“There is an extreme beauty to a diamond. It gives you incredible pleasure and speaks to you with its life.”
- Laurence Graff
The Wonder of Yellow Diamonds
Discover four of the finest yellow diamonds that have passed through the House of Graff, each of which has earned a special place in diamond history.
2017
The Peace Diamond
In 2017, Graff acquired the 709 carat Peace Diamond. The second largest rough diamond discovered in Sierra Leone, this historic stone will soon reveal its secrets, which are expected to include a gem of such importance that it will join Graff’s hallowed roll call of famous yellow diamonds.
2015
The Golden Empress
The inimitable honeyed hue of the Golden Empress, acquired in 2015, was harnessed from a 299 carat rough crystal that was unearthed in the Kingdom of Lesotho and which also produced a further eight beautiful satellite stones. This Fancy Intense Yellow cushion cut diamond displays a striking, unforgettable colour and weighs 132.55 carats.
2010
The Delaire Sunrise
Cut from an exceedingly rare octahedron shaped 221.81 carat rough diamond mined in South Africa, this 118.08 carat gem was certified by the GIA to be the largest Fancy Vivid Yellow square emerald cut diamond in the world.
1974
The Star of Bombay
Acquired in 1974, the 47.39 carat Star of Bombay was the first of a great many famous diamonds to pass through the House of Graff. Since the time of the Moghul Emperors, the Golconda mines in the Kingdom of Golconda (now part of the Indian state of Hyderabad) have produced some of the most historic and beautiful diamonds. Laurence Graff has owned many of these unique stones. He bought this diamond from a European dealer, who sold it for the benefit of a noble Indian family. ‘It was emerald cut and it had probably been set in a Maharajah’s regalia,’ according to Graff.
