Yes, nosotros were all captivated by Lady Gaga'due south emotionally charged acceptance speech at the Oscars. Sure, similar millions of viewers worldwide, nosotros too, were taken by her pseudo romance with Bradley Cooper when the pair performed Shallow, the theme from A Star is Born.
But while the pair were exchanging googly eyes, we remained googly-eyed over a certain chunk of yellowish rock draped around Gaga'due south decolletage, a sparkler so massive information technology could well accept had its ain gravitational strength.
It was the legendary Tiffany Diamond, a 128.54 ct., cushion-shaped whopper that'south 1 of the largest yellow diamonds ever unearthed. Information technology has just ever been worn thrice – once by the wife of a United states of america pol at the Tiffany Brawl in 1957; once by Audrey Hepburn when she was taking publicity shots for Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961; and so in February past Gaga.
The stone, along with its accompanying platinum necklace of alternate absorber-cut and round brilliant diamonds, will accept centrestage from today, Apr 3, for three weeks at Tiffany's new two-storey flagship in Sydney.

Carved rock panels on the outside form a wheat leaf blueprint, while a wraparound, fluted glass canopy welcomes visitors with its prismatic performance. Inside are individual salons for intimate viewing, too equally gallery-like spaces lit by natural light streaming in from large windows and skylights.
Information technology's all about the play of low-cal, because how else is one supposed to capeesh diamonds in all their glory? The edge of glory, Gaga might remark. As well bad the popular icon won't exist parading effectually with her multifaceted companion. There aren't that many entertainers that tin can bear off a jewel of such heft without information technology overpowering them. Gaga, like the diamond itself, is one of the rare few.
