The famous Krupp diamond from Elizabeth Taylor’s ring
Known as the Krupp Diamond, this 33-carat, pure diamond, valued at $8.8 million, was a gift from Richard Burton and a symbol of the media-savvy couple’s lavish and extravagant lifestyle. While other engagement rings with unusual cuts exist, such as Catherine Zeta-Jones’s marquise-cut, none match the grandeur and purity of this dazzling gem worn by Elizabeth.
Princess Diana’s iconic sapphire ring
While it may not be on this list due to its modest initial price of £50,000, its current value is truly incalculable due to the immense popularity of its first owner .
The Princess’s choice of a blue sapphire from a publicly available catalog was a revolutionary move for a British monarch at the time . Moreover, the use of a blue sapphire as the main stone rather than the traditional diamond was interpreted by some royals as too extravagant and modern.
However, this 18-carat white gold ring has become a true icon, symbolizing the princess’s impeccable taste and distinctive style . As an emblem of her heritage, we see it today on the finger of Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge.
If you’re interested in sapphire engagement rings with diamond surrounds like Lady Di’s, we recommend the Irem Ring in 18k white gold, sapphire, and 0.70 ct diamonds from Mumit. Each sapphire in the collection has been meticulously selected by the brand’s gemologists to reflect the depth of the purest love.
The perfect diamond in Kim Kardashian’s ring
The two pavé solitaire engagement rings Kanye West gave Kim Kardashian have a special story. These diamonds are considered perfect because they are completely pure. Due to this exclusive characteristic and the skill of the cut, its initial value is estimated at approximately $8 million.
Years after their wedding, Kanye gave Kim another platinum engagement ring, this time with an even larger emerald-cut diamond than the first, totaling 20 carats . Despite its carat size, it is estimated to have cost $4 million, half the price of the first one. Unfortunately, this fabulous gem was stolen during the burglary of her Paris apartment in 2016. Although the gang responsible for the crime was arrested, the ring remains missing .
