WILLIAMS’ The famous Cullinan I,, world’s lar­ gest diamond, which is set in the scep­ tre of His Majesty, King George VI, is on display (in replica) at George Williams, local jeweller. The story of the Cullinan is one of the most fas­ cinating in the entire history of dia­ monds. One January afternoon in 1905, Fred Wells ,a surface manager at Pre­ mium Mines No. 2 strolled out for a casual tour of inspection; twenty min­ utes later he came running like a mad­ man, carrying in his two hands the biggest diamond crystal ever seen. When the crystal was placed on the scale, the indicator swung to 3,024 carats. A pound and three quarters avoirdupois! Three times the size of any diamond that had been discover­ ed. This* great find brought a reward of $10,000 to Mr. Wells and world­ wide acclaim. The Founder and the Chairman of the Premier Company, Mr. Thomas H. Cullinan, gave the four-inch diamond his name. When the owners decided to send it to Lon­ don they entrusted it to ordinary re­ gistered mail. Later the crystal was separated into 9 fragments. Work on the largest piece, Cullinan I, continu­ ed for seven months. When finished, the pear-shaped gem weighed 516U carats, it was 2 1-5 inches long and its maximum breadth was 1 2-3 inches. All the diamonds of the Cullinan scr­ ies are flawless and of the very finest blue white water. The largest Cullin­ an I, sometimes called the “King Ed­ ward” is the chief ornament in the handle of the royal sceptre, which plays a historic f>art in the Corona­ tion ceremonies.
