At the JCK Show in Las Vegas 2024, the International Gemological Institute (IGI) showcased and graded a 75.33 carat square-emerald cut lab-grown diamond, recognized as the world's largest to date. Alongside it was a distinctive 30.69 carat ring-shaped diamond, formed from a single crystal grown rough stone using Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Named the "Celebration of India" and "Infinity Ring," respectively, these milestones were presented by Ethereal Green Diamond LLP in collaboration with RockRush (SoHo, New York) at booth no #8135.
The 75.33 ct diamond had been graded by IGI as a type IIa with excellent polish and symmetry. Initially grown to a rough stone weighing 190 carats over approximately 270 days, it took around 30 days for cutting and polishing. Hirav Virani, Director at Ethereal Green, expressed, "At Ethereal Green, we were constantly innovating, adopting new technology, and setting benchmarks. It gave me immense pleasure to showcase 'Celebration of India,' which not only set a new milestone at 75 ct but also commemorated sovereign India's remarkable achievements spanning over 75 years of Independence."
In the previous year, the honorable PM of India, Mr. Narendra Modi, had presented an IGI-certified 7.5 ct Laboratory Grown Diamond to the First Lady of the United States, Dr. Jill Biden, as part of the celebrations marking India's 75th Independence anniversary.
