The property of a prominent Private collector, this pink stone was purchased from Harry Winston in 1976 the very same year, the United States launched its first satellite on a mission to Mars. The Viking landers were the pioneering spacecrafts to first land on Mars, carrying with them the American flag across millions of miles of interplanetary space. Ronald Winston was inspired by the intense pink colour of the diamond and named it Martian Pink to honour and celebrate this historic event.
