The First All-Diamond Diamond Ring


In my years covering the diamond beat, I’ve seen a lot of unique spins on the diamond ring concept, but I have to give credit to Geneva company Shawish for this one: They have introduced the first diamond ring made entirely of diamond.

Here is a brief video: 

The resulting creation reportedly weighs 150 cts. and will retail for $70 million.
All this raises some questions: Would anyone buy, or even wear, this? Are they going to make a “second diamond ring”? And just how comfortable could this be on your finger?
