Glints From the "Light of Peace"--Natalie Baumer holds the "Light of Peace," a 434.6-carat diamond when it was unveiled in New York Wednesday by its purchaser, a large retail jewelry chain. Officials of the Dallas-based Zale Corp., the purchaser, said the stone was dubbed the "Light of Peace" because it will be used to promote peace. It is the 14th largest uncut diamond ever discovered.
