You could split it up for a wedding set and a matched set of earrings, necklace and a brooch...........

Diamonds are basically worthless anyway - its only the hording by de Boors that makes them valuable.

It would make a good engagement ring. Don’t even need to take delivery. Just a picture and a certificate of authenticity should suffice.

Do you have any of those worthless rocks you want to send my way?

There are probably millions of tonnes of diamonds in Earths crust.
Like the one in Jupiter, it's only the small matter of accessibility.
It's also true that the value is hyped.

Remember Carter and Van Peel? (Not to be confused with Cartier, or Van Cleef and Arpels - they were just imitators). Yes, sir, Carter and Van Peel would sell you their precision watches, gems and smelly perfumes with some certificate or other for the low, low price of something or other plus shipping and handling if you acted now! Danged if I didn’t miss out.
To: Red Badger
I thought it rolled behind the couch. How did it get to Jupiter? The cats, probably.
