Isn’t it interesting this necklace shows clearly how diamonds have no value !!!! He only talked how amazing and clear those emeralds were !!! Big marquis cut diamonds were set all the way back of the necklace ...

You’d think someone like him would know the actual names of the cuts of stones in this necklace... although when you realize he’s nothing but a glorified salesman/hype maker, you get it.
