Diamonds have been one of the world’s most precious gems for millennia. The ancient Egyptians and Greeks knew they had something special on their hands when they found these crystalline carbon deposits, and these rare stones have only grown more popular with age – so much so that many labs in the world actually create diamonds now.

There are hundreds of slogans that go along with diamonds, claiming everything from their infinity to their friendly relationship with women. Over the years, diamonds have sealed the deal for weddings, helped many a-man with an apology and, of course, simply made for the ultimate gift.

Tiffany & Co. has been one of the big players in the diamond market in recent years, and one of their most prized - and most expensive - pieces is the Majestic Diamond Necklace.

The word majestic says it all when speaking of this ultimate gift. It’s not a simple rope chain with a diamond charm hanging from it, nor is it a middle-class piece of jewelry that any boyfriend or husband could simply get on credit to give to his significant other. No, this necklace is the ultimate gift for good reason.

Tiffany & Co’s Majestic diamond necklace is an astonishing 84 carats of the highest graded diamonds in the world. These sparkling, white gems aren’t the recreations from laboratories or the flawed pieces of stone you’d find at any low-rent jewelry boutique. It took a painstaking effort to sort and precision cut the hundreds of diamonds used in this piece.

The necklace rope itself is a pear-shaped solid platinum chain that’s 16 inches in diameter. The chain alone is a lavish gift, but the embroidery is what makes it the ultimate. The round brilliant diamonds used and the individual sets that hang from the rope give the Majestic a one-of-a-kind appearance that is almost impossible to duplicate with cubic zirconia or other jewels.

The Majestic from Tiffany & Co. is the quintessential piece for someone looking to make the ultimate fashion statement. It can be described as nothing less than the Rolls-Royce of the necklace world, and its steep price tag reflects every single element that went into its creation.

For this many high-grade diamonds alone, you could expect to pay close to a million dollars. Throw in the fact that they’re masterfully set in platinum with multiple pendant-style settings, and you have the makings of a million-dollar-plus piece of jewelry.

The Majestic from Tiffany & Co. will set you back a staggering $1,650,000. Even some very wealthy people don’t pay that much for their house. It’s easy to see why this necklace is the ultimate gift.
