Pink Diamond

Who said the (copiously) rich and (mega) famous have it all? We all know that money cannot buy everything; it can’t buy love, can’t buy true friends, can’t buy happiness, and so forth. However, if you are Mariah Carey, the world’s biggest selling female artist in history, it can help you attain any creature comfort you can imagine, like super-luxurious pink diamond! Mariah Carey, one of Hollywood’s ten richest women, has been seen sporting stunning pink diamond and sapphire ring pop and a gorgeous 17-carat pink diamond engagement ring.

Mariah Carey, 40, and husband Nick Cannon, 29, tied the knot two years ago, and for their second anniversary they resolved to renew their vows: “If you were married to Mariah Carey, you’d want to marry her every year too,” a euphoric Nick tells USMagazine.com. Carey is known for her love of girlish things, like butterflies, rainbows, and anything pink. For their second anniversary, then, Cannon decided it would be a good idea to purchase the missus the gorgeous pink diamond and sapphire ring pop.

But the luxurious pink diamond and sapphire ring pop is dwarfed compared to Mariah’s epicurean 17-carat pink diamond engagement ring. Mariah, whose net worth is estimated at well over $200 million, knows how to “live it large;” private jets, boats, houses in NY and LA and much more are all part of her routine. Her pink diamond engagement ring is but a mere addition to this routine. The ring’s value is said to be $2.5 million, and Mariah said the pink diamond is “so clear, you can see [her] finger right through it.” The ring  has an emerald-cut fancy light pink centre stone surrounded by 58 intense pink diamonds, flanked by two half-moon diamonds, with the centre stone alone being 10 carats and just a little smaller than a dime.

Diamonds come in a variety of colors- gray, white, blue, yellow, orange, red, green, brown, black, purple and pink. Pink diamonds are one of the rarest and most valuable diamonds, and natural pink diamonds (as opposed to enhanced), are so rare that many jewelers have never even seen one. It is no surprise that many other superstars, fancy it so much. Indeed, Mariah has taken “pretty in pink” to a new, mostly unattainable, level.
