The raw Cullinan Diamond remains the largest raw diamond ever found. It was found in South Africa in 1905 and weighed over 3,000 carats. It filled the palm of a grown man's hand.
The original size of the Hope Diamond is unknown, but today it is about the size of a egg, considerably less than the Cullinan.
