Become a Gemologist
In recent times, what was first called the Zale diamond, an 890.25-carat golden yellow stone, was unveiled to the public in New York in November 1984.
But it was not until 1988 that Marvin Samuels and Louis Glick, who by then owned the gem, were ready to bring to market the final product--a 407.48-carat diamond called The Incomparable.
Incomparable it may be, but when it went to auction in October 1988 the owner withdrew it when the top bid attracted was $12 million.
