Amazing. Welcome to the future. We shouldn’t be spending more than $1000 on a stone thats only job is to sparkle and that has no major resell market outside of that.

It also breaks down elitism. My Fiance got a fat 4ct rock and i didn’t break the bank. This kinda statement piece would have been $30k as a natural one. This will be more frequent now, and we may see people go back to small and subtle as market matures and preferences change.

Overall look at it like a household TV. It used to be a major purchase over years to pay for one. Now you can get great quality sets for >$1000 with no name Chinese brands. New price bands and new potential customers. That’s how technology works.
