Jewellery store De Beers opens at Suria KLCC

The world’s most famous diamond purveyor has opened at Suria KLCC, its second store in South-East Asia after Singapore.

DESPITE what the name suggests, De Beers did not begin life selling a particular alcoholic beverage. It is the family name of brothers Diederick and Nicholas de Beers whose farmland turned out to be particularly loaded with diamonds. They quickly sold their property and never ran the company that bore their name.
