Leibish & Co .52 Carat Natural Purplish Red Argyle Diamond

You're looking at the .52 carat, SI-1 Clarity Radiant shape Argyle Natural Purplish Red Diamond, mined from the Argyle Diamond mine in Western Australia and now owned by the Israeli Diamond Wholesaler, Leibish & Co. The diamond was grade by the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory. The majority of the current red diamonds weigh less than one-half carat. The Argyle Mine accounts for 95% of all the red and pink diamonds in the world and supply is expected to run out by 2018.


According to Robert Kane of the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory, intense and vivid pink diamonds are rare and red where the primary dominant hue is purplish red is the rarest of all. Red diamonds are among the rarest of fancy color diamonds with only 20 known natural red diamonds in the world and have sold for record breaking prices.


In 1987, the fancy purplish red .95 carat Hancock Red Diamond sold for $926,000 per carat, and in 2007, a 6.04 carat flawless fancy blue diamond was sold by Sotheby's Auction House for $1.3 million per carat! Compare this to to the price for the highest colorless and flawless diamond which trades at $100,000 per carat.


In the world of fancy colored diamonds; "Do you see red", can take on a whole other positive meaning.

I have found that page and if I might I would like to recommend you some favorable idea. Perhaps you can write more pages reffering to this one. I would love to read next things about it!

Nice blog.keep up the good work.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

You are my breathing in, I own few blogs and rarely run out from to brand : (.
