Â· The Cullinan Diamond was discovered in 1905 and at 3,106 carats was the largest gem-quality rough diamond ever found. Cullinan I, or the Great Star of Africa - at 530 carats formerly the largest cut diamond - was one of the 105 gems cut from it. Â· The Koh-i-noor is part of the British crown jewels.
The world's biggest diamond depends upon your definition of 'world'. In fact the biggest diamond ever discovered was found floating in space at the core of a dead star. It is 2,500 miles wide and weighs 10 million trillion trillion carats, but at a distance of 50 light years from the Earth, it may be a little inaccessible to count for our purposes.
