KOI DIAMOND, A LEGEND

 

This is the story of the weirdest most sacred diamond out there.
The Koi.

The colors of this 32 carat diamond evokes the Koi fish,
legend and sacred symbolism cherished by East Asians.

For over two thousand years, the Koi legend enthralled and inspired people in China. It is a story of endurance and beauty. Visually captivating, Koi fish are described as swimming up the Yellow River, their body flashing in the sunlight and glittering like a million living diamonds. Once they reach the waterfall, only the most determined throw their bodies into the air and reach the top of the falls.
how inspiring!

art inspiration

When it comes to diamonds, the symbolic meaning
is just as powerful as the stone itself.
The shapes, textures and
