COURT Historic Stone, Said Taken by Warren Hastings, Sub- ject of Suit Indian image, the famous Nassik diamond has turned up in the Court of Customs Appeals; where it will be decided whether the blazing brilliant 1s "an artistic antique' or merely "a diamond, eut hut not sot, suitable for use in the manu. facture of jewelry," The stone was brought hefors the court under guard, Reposing in a black box, It was exhibited to the court and to many women who had been attracted by the novelty, valued at a lsvge sam, In 1837 na value was fixed at £40,000 In 1927, on Instructions from the Treasury Department, the Nassak diamond was admitted to the Unit. od States duty free, as a work of art more than a 100 years old, Treasures of this classification are not dutiable, Classification Protested Action was brought by Mayers, Osterwold and Muhfeld Inec., whole. salory and dealers in diamonds and precious stones, to have the stone classed as dutinble at 20 per cent ad valorem. They urged that the diamond was not a work of art and that it could be cut into many smaller stones and used In the manufacture of jowelry, The pro- tostants asserted that virtually any large diamond might be classed an an artistic antique, since the age ot these stones is not questioned, The history of the stone showed that it was taken from' a temple somo time around 1800, although its history dated back to the Af- teenth or sixteenth contury, The Nassak wan thought to have come originally from near Nassak, It was sald to have been taken by Warren Hastings from the last In dependent Prince of Pesahwa In 1818, and wold to the East India Company, At the time it was found the diamond weighed 50% carats but its shape was described as bad, A jeweler named Emanuel bought the stone in London in 1831 for £7,200, Ho sold it to the Marquis of Westminster in 1837, according to the brief and the Marquis haa it recut to a three-sided brilliant of T8% carats, The brief added: Gained by Cutting "We have seen that the origine al welght' was 80% carats, and this was now reduced to 78% carats, a vory slight sacrifice compared with loss suffered by the Koh-I-Noor and some other Indian stones when re out in London and Amsterdam, "It gained so much in the lapis dary's hands that this gem Is now reputed to be worth £25,000 to £30,000 and it must not be forgot. ten that the stone was sold when times were bad and money scarce."
