A diamond-encrusted $1 million hairstyle (as shown
in the picture below shocked the world when it was
unvield in the 70′s. Now the same jeweller, Lawrence
Graff, has recreated the hair and jewel style, this time
to the value of $500 million .
The new hairdo features 51.53-carat and 50.76-carat
heart shape diamonds; a 10.47-carat vivid blue
internally flawless briolette diamond pendant; a 6.51-
carat intense pink internally flawless oval cut diamond
ring; and a selection of jewelry crafted from the 550-
carat Letšeng Star, the 14th largest white rough
diamond ever discovered.
Mr Graff founder and chairman of Graff started his
career aged 15 as an apprentice in Hatton Garden,
London.
‘I recognized the importance of establishing the Graff
Diamonds brand globally,’ he said at the time. ‘Until
this time, images showing fine jewelry were typically
modeled in a more conservative style. This image
broke the mold by using a younger model and created
the idea of diamonds being aspirational to younger
women.
He was also awarded a Most Excellent Order of the
british Empire for Services in jewelry, one of the
highest honors awarded by the British monarchy.
