The world's largest known vivid yellow pear-shape diamond was the highlight of a display at the Natural History Museum in London from February to September 2011.
Jerry Hall was the lucky guest dazzled by the 110-carat Cora Sun-Drop diamond when it was unveiled in the Museum's Vault gallery on 24 February 2011.
The Sun-Drop, which was mined in Africa, was lent to the Museum by Cora International, the diamond company that crafted the original rough diamond.
