His Steady Hand
Split Diamond
Worth Millions
By TALBOT LAKE
.NE Of the largest diamonds the

0NE of the largest diamonds the
~ world has ever known was the
Vargas, which weighed 726 carats
in the rough. We use the past
tense because the stone Is now
split up and the parts are being
polished and cut. The value OF the
uncut stone was estimated at
$4,000, 900, but nobody could wear
the irregular, dim-looking lump In
Its native state.
While diamonds are the hardest
thing known to man. q hammer
blow will smash them to smither-
Gems. Therefore, cleaving such D
diamond with a wedge and ham,
mer is a very ticklish job. This
work was done recently by Adrian
Orasselly, foremost man In the
diamond-cutting business. HIS
wages for his highly skilled labor
run well into the hundreds . week.
The diamond. owned by Harry
Winston, a New York City dealer.
was studied by 0rasselly for two
years before the blows that split It
were taken. In that time winston
and Orasselly studied models OF
the stone until they had figured
out just how it was to be cleaved.
The last cutter to cleave Q stone
of like value went to q sanitarium
when the job was done, so great IS
the nerve strain. One slip would
mean a loss of millions.
When the time came to split the
Vargas Grasselly, 58-year-old
New Yorker who learned his dim
cult art from his father. carefully
filed a notch with another dia-
mond, inserted his wedge, tapped
1t three times and the stone fell
apart. A hidden flaw in 1t. q slight
slip. an unsteady blow, and he
would have had junk on his hands,
and on Winston's. Instead. he did
such q neat job that the faint Ink
line on the other side Of the valu-
able rock split squarely In the
middle.
Only Grasselly, Winston and
another diamond cutter were there
when the delicate job was done.
The expert didn't tell anyone. not
even his wife, who would have
gone SleepleSs all night and spent
the next day in church praying for
him. He, himself, slept only two
hours the two nights before he did
the job.
In his spare time he drives his
car. He is now taking . ten-day
motor trip. free OF the nerve
wracking job of diamond cutting.
He likes to white and build
model boats. Grasselly has split .
million carats OF diamonds. but
never wears any. However. he gave
his daughter one recently that he
worked on. He lives moderately,
drinks little. and smokes a pipe.
