A BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND.
Owned in New York, Valued at
100000, But Not for Sale, Even at
That Price.

That Price.
From the New York Sun.
Perhaps as compact a form as any into
which it would be possible to put 800, 900
would be that of diamond. One valued
at that amount, to be seen here in New
York. is a canary-colored African stone
Weighing 1888 carate, and in size about
as big as a medlum-sized English walnut
Though having many faults the top of
this diamond has a rounded contour not
unlike that of the end of such walnut.
while upon its under side it tapers down
to point; being thus in its general form
like many a smaller diamond mounted
In a ring.
This diamond, however. is not mounted
except that 1t is set in very simple
little holder by which 1t can be conyen-
iently held up for inspection; this being.
merely short stem of gold with branch
ing arms at the top. within which the
diamond is secured, the extremities of the
arms being made to clasp over the dia-
monds edge. By means of this little
golden handle the diamond may be held
up to view just as a rosebud might be
on Its stem.
Even at the valuation placed upon II
this beautiful stone is not for sale. Owned
by the diamond and gem merchants
whose familiar name 1t bears, it is kent
as one of the treasures of the house
Sight of 1t has afforded pleasure to
many.
