Louis Vuitton Buys UGLY Diamond | SEWELO Diamond

  • Louis Vuitton just bought what is being billed as the second largest diamond in the world. Spoiler alert: It isn't! And it is UGLY. This is no Cullinan Diamond! The Sewelo Diamond was discovered in Botswana in April of 2019, but Lucara Diamond chose not to put it up for auction because it was ... you guessed it ... UGLY. Watch to find out more about the Sewelo Diamond and why I think that a company that can fetch $3000 for a bag made from canvas is uniquely qualified to sell crappy diamonds.

    You are too funny. But how dare you make fun of our beloved Louis Vuitton! ;D We all know those Toiletry 15's are rare and expensive because they're made of the highest quality plastic-coated cotton, lined with another high quality plastic that NEVER peels, finished with hardware made of the finest mystery metal and plated in another gold-colored who-knows-what-it-is metal, and that it's hand sewn in the heights of the French mountains by highly skilled French mountain elves who have trained their whole lives for this honor and who weave the thread from the hair of their French mountain goat kids. Interesting diamond, though. I'll be curious to see what LVMH does with it. And it's nice to see another jewelry video from you. :)

      Ha! You paint the perfect LV picture Autumn!! But you forgot to add that there are also Texas mountain elves! It will be very interesting to see where this diamond ends up indeed! xoxo

      you nailed it. i remember arguing with my sister about her buying iPhone 5c back in 2014 and she told me it is an investment and collectors item coz its rare and made of titanium and I laughed and told her that aluminum not rare metals coz you see them everywhere like aluminum foils. Her iPhone 5 nearly costs her $1k in 2014 and just this month I bought my first ever iPhone which is a second hand iPhone 5 in good condition for less than $60! If only she spent $1k dollars in 2014 it would be worth so much more now especially if they are natural color diamonds however small.

    When I saw the news about LV's purchase of the diamond I wondered if you'd do a video on it! I'll be very interested to see how they end up selling it/what they end up doing with it. And I love how you've added "nationally award-winning" to your intro. Yes, own it, girl!

    I don’t understand why people don’t want inclusion free or near inclusion free, colorless stones so much. “Near gem quality” stones look more beautiful to me!

    • @JillMaurer
      @JillMaurer  3 года назад +1

      It used to be that the industry marketed the ideal of colorless inclusion free stones. More recently they started marketing more common stones (like brown stones). It's definitely been interesting to see the progression. xoxo

    • @JillMaurer
      @JillMaurer  4 года назад

      It will be so interesting to see what happens. They may get one good stone out of it, but I doubt much more than that. They could do a beautiful line of jewelry with the rest. It's just that the diamonds would not be very high quality. Time will tell!! xoxo

      @JillMaurer  4 года назад

      Welcome Gaofenngwe! I donate to the Devon Foundation and have paid for two women to study at the Institute of Gemology in Madagascar. The concept behind this is to provide education for people to become gemologists so that people in Africa can grade their own stones and therefore sell them for more. My understanding it that there are gemology jobs in Africa for people who have this education. What do you think of this approach? I'd love to know since you are right there. xoxo

    • @lifeinbotswana4879
      @lifeinbotswana4879 4 года назад +1

      I think it is a very good approach for women in Africa,you are definitely doing a very good job,I applaud you Jill but unfortunately from where I come from in Botswana I have not heard of a gemologist, to tell the truth i am not even familiar with the term although I have been in the mining industry for sometime now.
      Please share more n the Devon Foundation scholarship,I am very much interested.

    They have all lost their damn minds. The only company better at artificial rarity who could have bought this black lump and promoted it as rare and precious is Hermes. A company which has the nerve to say a handbag is worth $20,000 and make people believe it could easily sell this rock.

    • @JillMaurer
      @JillMaurer  4 года назад

      True! In Hermes' defense, they are one of the very few still making bags literally by hand and not having quality issues. But I agree that they are doing a whole lot with a piece of leather. I wish I had that kind of marketing power!! xoxo
