Melbourne, Australia–Last year, Rio Tinto made an astounding discovery at its Argyle mine in Western Australia and never said a word about it. The diamond mining company unearthed a 9.17-carat piece of rough that yielded a stone Rio Tinto Diamonds’ Patrick Coppens describes as “impossibly rare”–a 2.83-carat fancy deep grayish blue violet diamond that it dubbed the “Argyle Violet.” It is the largest violet diamond ever recovered from the mine.

The Gemological Institute of America assigned the oval-shaped stone a color grade of fancy deep grayish blue violet. In a peer-reviewed article in the spring 2009 edition of Gems & Gemology, the GIA noted that the Argyle mine is the world’s only known source of type IaB hydrogen- and nitrogen-rich diamonds colored gray to blue to violet.

June is the most popular month to tie the knot, and those looking to plan their fairy-tale wedding next year need to start with the right ring—right now. Of course, not every girl is the same, so we gathered a selection of the best pieces to suit the style of every soon-to-be-bride. Fans of Downton Abbey will appreciate the period from labels including Cartier, David Webb, and Monique Péan. Minimalists should look to the designs of Asprey, Hemmerle, and Repossi, whose jewelry balance classic stones with subtle elegance. Those seeking out nonconformist bijoux should eschew the classic white diamond in favor of pearls, sapphires, and emeralds, or add a dash of color in blue, yellow, or and even green diamonds. On the other hand, purists prefer the return to simple grandeur of round and emerald cuts like those from David Yurman, Graff, and Harry Winston. Now that we’ve done all the work for you, the only thing left to say is yes.
