THE DIAMOND MUSEUM

At the entrance to the Adamas jewelry store, this small museum tells the story of diamond cutting in Mauritius and around the world. On display are several pieces of equipment used in the past and replicas of famous diamonds such as the Cullinan I and II, the legendary Hope and the Taylor-Burton. Panels explain how the queen of gems is shaped, and you can watch polishers at work. The place is also a showcase and a form of introduction to the Adamas brand, historically (re) known in diamond circles.
