110-Year-Old Yellow Brazilian Diamond Ring Worth Five Figures | Antiques Roadshow

[@corgeousgeorge]

That young woman is a jewel herself. So understated and intelligent with her calm curiosity. She has very good energy.

[@Knappa22]

The young lady asking good relevant questions really drew out the description given by the specialist. Great informative clip.

[@lyndarichardson4744]

Antiques Roadshow was classier in those days. That young lady really impressed me 👍

[@Knappa22]

Me too. She was genuinely interested and did not screech when the value was revealed.

[@stephenjames674]

She seemed to be there to learn, not to be seen on TV with a pricy antique.

[@ursusmega2803]

The real Diamond is the woman asking the clever questions. What a curiosity-blessed clever person.

[@Ana_crusis]

Do you mean the girl asking perfectly obvious questions about the ring that she brought to the expert in order to get more information? You think that's somehow a sign of remarkably brilliant intelligence do you??

[@duelenigma7732]

@@Ana_crusis well she is everything you are not .

[@itaintinnit]

@@Ana_crusis I think you misspoke. You could've hardly meant "obvious." Surely, you were looking for the word "ordinary." To actually engage with the expert in this natural manner, as if no cameras were on and they were just conversing, is not very common on these programs. It is not common to ask questions when you've already stated you know practically nothing about your item. The fact that the woman looks young, and displays one of the most endearing qualities of youth, curiosity, made the OP want to sort of "respond in kind" with a compliment, I would reckon. Perhaps the OP is of older age, making such a compliment even more natural. The word "clever" does not indicate "remarkably and brilliantly intelligent" either, so I'm not sure why you seemingly got so upset. Perhaps you were confusing it with the word "genius"? Cheers.

[@Ana_crusis]

@itaintinnit i meant "obvious" (if that is indeed the word I wrote. I'm not in the habit of writing the wrong words. I seriously can't be bothered to look at such an unimportant passing comment on an unimportant passing video. Clearly you have very little to occupy your time)

[@Ana_crusis]

​@itaintinnit And on the contrary if you watch the antiques roadshow you'd see it was perfectly normal and common to chat with the expert in a normal natural manner. There's no reason why people shouldn't and they do. They are not in awe of these people as if they were huge Hollywood mega stars😅

[@islandyyt]

There’s a lot of fire in that diamond. Gorgeous!

[@SilverionX]

@@davedoogan6650 In the end, someone has to have the knowledge to look up in the first place and in 2003 the internet wasn't what it is today. But if I recall correctly they have more than one expert looking at stuff on site, I think I've heard them mention it before.

[@Ana_crusis]

That's why they are experts on the antiques roadshow. They're not going to employ people on the show who don't know what they're talking about are they?

[@Ana_crusis]

​@@davedoogan6650no they are experts

[@gl15col]

I really like that cut, I wish they still did it. It seems more sparkly than the modern cut.

[@brt5273]

Yes they tend to flash, which is much more dramatic than the sort of overall bright "crushed ice" appearance of modern diamonds.

[@Bebedollie]

Ur right it's beautiful

[@mchapman1928]

@@brt5273- If your diamond looks like crushed ice, it’s not good. I sold diamonds for several years in a family business.

[@abigailphilips825]

You can get old cuts from Jewels by Grace from the US, also from the US, Distinctive Gem have designed modern cushion and round diamonds cut to the old proportions but maximised to give the greatest sparkle.

[@abigailphilips825]

@@mchapman1928 Absolutely right, crushed ice in a diamond generally indicates it's a pooper, especially in round cut diamonds. In some fancy shapes, crushed ice is permissible if you like that sort of thing and the stone performs.

[@kelseywillow8110]

I like they go into detail, a lot of times people just want to know value right away

[@henkdevries7573]

I like how interested she is, seems genuinely curious rather than waiting for whatever it might be worth. Also strange thing to say about a girl who is now a woman 21 years older than when this was filmed

[@WoodlandDance]

Agreed - she does ask some great questions. In the video, she says that the ring belongs to her brother; it was passed down to him.

[@JLee-rt6ve]

@@WoodlandDance That's why she didn't ask what it's worth!

[@nato4720]

HAHA

[@mchapman1928]

It’s yellow, many do not like yellow diamonds. It’s an old mine cut stone, again many do not like that cut, style. So basically, it’s a limited market which keeps the value down.

@@mchapman1928Nonsense. This broadcast is from 2003

[@mchapman1928]

@@ladyanastasiabeaverh - The fact it was from 2003 has no bearing on my comment. It’s a yellow diamond, old mine cut. They were popular many, many years ago. Because of that, its value is reduced. I sold diamonds for several years, my family was in the jewelry business in NYC.

[@LoveLady-wn3eg]

[@Oh_Hell_No_6969]

It’s the Cut of the Diamond as they are seeing it, that determines the value. A lot of larger, older diamonds are cut smaller, and become more valuable. I’d rather the Original.

It's not 110 years old. It's about 2 billion years old.

I bet the current value is much higher

[@jbsang54]

The 'cut' off the bottom of the stone makes it a 'mine cut'. Albeit, I don't agree with the estimate of the ring.

It's over 4ct. I would say at least £20 000.

Back then, a British Pound was $3 usd. So actually $36k usd.

[@malipena9751]

@joycemckeown789 , this was recorded in 2003. So not today's money. $36k usd, in 2003. Would be like $75k in today's money, if we adjusted for inflation.
