Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror. -Rabindranath Tagore

London's National History Museum has just added a rare object to its treasure trove. The museum now has on display the world's largest yellow diamond. This stone weighs 110 carats and is called the Cora Sun Drop and was mined in Africa. It is easily as big as a human eye! The diamond, lent to the museum by Cora International, the diamond company, will be on display at the museum for six months.
