In Mr. He's collection, there is the largest diamond in the world. This diamond weighs 2 18.08 carats and is identified as the flawless diamond with the highest color. It can be said that this diamond is the purest and largest diamond in the world. At the beginning, Stanley Ho bought it from a famous jeweler at a huge sum of money and spent a long time polishing it. The actual price now is unimaginable.
There are many gold handicrafts collected by Stanley Ho in the newly-opened Portuguese casino. These include rockeries carved with gold, peacocks inlaid with gold and precious stones, and even more luxurious admiralty and golden dragon boats. I'm afraid the weight of these gold handicrafts piled together has exceeded tons.
In addition to exquisite gold handicrafts, he also collected many jade articles. As the saying goes, gold is valuable and jade is priceless. There is a huge white sheep fat jade with excellent color, which is carved into cabbage and exhibited. There is a whole jade carving rockery, and there are countless wood carvings, root carvings and ivory carvings. The materials used in these works of art alone are extremely expensive, and exquisite carvings are priceless.
What is mentioned above is nothing more than the collections that Mr. Ho has publicly exhibited. Mr. Stanley Ho himself is a person who likes antiques very much. He once donated 147 pieces of ancient China cultural relics at one time. There must be some precious antique relics in the collection that Mr. He has not publicly exhibited.
It can be seen that Stanley Ho not only owns a business empire, but also his collection is unique and priceless. Compared with these precious collections, animal heads should also stand aside. But the animal head is one of the important evidences of Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China, and its value and significance are immeasurable.
