Anadiyan told the organization that “a team of qualified independent diamond experts and jewelry experts evaluated the ring” at International Gemological Institute Lab after it was created.
Experts counted the diamonds using a microscope and also evaluated and confirmed the stones' weight, carat, clarity, stone type and type of cut.
Boasting a flower design, thatring contained 12,638 diamonds— a little more than half of the number of stones in the new record-setter.
