The yellow diamond of the House of Dior
In this month of April, where diamond is the birthstone, let's celebrate the diamond highlighted by the House of Dior during the reopening of its store last month:
The yellow diamond of the House of Dior
A diamond bearing the name of Avenue de la Maison: the Montaigne. Coming from a 150 carat rough, it is a Fancy Intense Yellow diamond and a feat of size: Dior has made its final weight an express condition of its purchase. The Montaigne weighs exactly 88.88 carats, cushion cut.
A diamond of 88.88 carats, a lucky number
8 is a favorite number for the House of Dior: it opened avenue Montaigne on October 8, 1946, on 8 floors in the 8th arrondissement as well as the En Huit line created during Christian Dior's first haute-couture collection. Without forgetting that the number 8 is lucky and synonymous with fortune in China. This sought-after yellow diamond therefore undoubtedly has many advantages.
A tailor-made piece has already been imagined by Victoire de Castellane, artistic director of Dior to stage it.
