On the hunting grounds of the Dayaks, formerly headhunters in the tropical rainforest Borneo, there are many artisanal diamond deposits found of exceptional colors: yellow, green, blue, pink, red...
Little information is found or circulating about these sites, long protected by natural elements.
Already exploited in the tenth century at the time of Golconda mines in India, they provided among other riches, the diamonds of the Jakarta Treasury in which this film will take you; deep into the coffers and the windows filled with rich crowns, kris (daggers long royal) whose blade was manufactured with metal meteorites and pommel gold set with a variety of gems and a multitude of other jewels set and covered with precious stones.
During this expedition, the film immerses you in exceptional scenes, including that of Shamans that purify villages with diamonds, but the Imams who practice \"soussouk\", the ancestral tradition of implanting diamonds under the skin of their followers.
After having extracted the sediments from the river Landak, and after long journeys, the diamonds are housed with the merchants of Jakarta, then to the different corners of the world, notably, in Antwerp where some men are specialized in the trade of diamond color.
Arthur Langerman, the greatest of colored diamonds specialists, was commissioned by the jeweler Georland to find an incredible amount of gems of the same color, and to ultimately create an unusual ‘gem’: \"Aston Martin\" whose dashboard is covered over 5000 diamonds.
You enter into the Chateau of Chantilly, in France to find a pink diamond with an inestimable value; and now hidden deep within a safe: " The Conde".
I just love these documentaries on your channel. It gives me so much more sentiment over my jewelery. It is good to know where and how our gems and settings come from. I also like the narrator, she makes me that much more immersed in the story whether or not she is repeating the english speaker, or translating a foreign language.
The famous diamond in Indonesia is from Banjar.
Famous opal in Indonesia is from Banten. ( kalimaya black opal )
Thank you for a great video that's very interesting, educating and well documented. Looking forward to going on a journey with you someday.
a very interesting program depicting the experiences and hardships needed to obtain diamonds in order to survive, but also the obscenity of having a car covered in diamonds. Distasteful!!
I’m sure those miners are thrilled to have such a robust market for their diamonds.
Love, love colored diamonds!
Patrick tu as réalisé un reportage extraordinaire concernant les pierres précieuses à Bornéo merci à toi avec autant de couleurs de diamant.
From Nanmaran BELGIUM
Awesome. Educative, informative and well documented.
These documentary's literally made me go down a rabbit hole of gems, thank you for making these inspiring videos!
same. First it was learning about the refractive index. Then it was looking up the world's most famous diamonds.
Very interesting about colored diamonds, thanks.

Ow, Thank you Mr. Patrick to show other beauty of my bornland, Pontianak. I am surprised that Pontianak is a fancy diamond producer, impresive.
Pontianak is a beautiful place. I have had the pleasure of becoming a tatung in singkawang. I love Borneo
Wow a lots of diamonds great video thank you for sharing
I have a special love for the island of Borneo because my father's family surname is Boneo. They took the r out however, I want to believe that one side of our ancestor's came from Borneo ages ago and to save the place they they used it as part of their name. And strangely, some of the children alive do have a similar appearance of the islanders. I do as well.
where you family home after Borneo you supposed
All I want is a huge super high definition poster of that collection of Arthur Langerman so I can marvel at those diamonds I'll never come close to.
Absolutely amazing video & design.
Placing diamonds under the skin, by magic, without blood or incision, that is the most hilarious scam I’ve seen yet.
Crazy world we are living, I was thinking about those poor souls picking up the left over from emerald mines in Colombia, and this smack driving a Aston Martin that looks a bit Kitsch to me anyway
Yes, life isn't fair. But it is about making the best with the opportunities you are given. What may seem like a life of hell to you is a blessing for that guy digging through those tailings for emeralds. Because his only other options will earn him 10% the money for the same work. If it wasn't a better life for them, they would not be doing it. I have several friends from Colombia. Trust that there are worse life's that they can be forced into to make money.
compare Your Life or My Life to the poor Colombians or to the "smack in the nice automobile"..........................
if you have the correct perspective, the value is the same........
the stars above our heads are the diamonds we can own, each human that lives, has lived, or will live...................
the "things" one possesses, will soon pass to another, VERY Temporary in the scheme of this life.......
Don't think
super video, so interesting indeed
Very interesting please do more.
👌
My gosh your so talented.I love coloured diamonds ( pink ) is my favourite.I do wish that the poor could have a better life.Im sure you will help the people.In Borneo..If I was able to help them I would...I did enjoy this video.Maybe give the poor the proceeds of the money you make to help the poor..Thank you for sharing the beauty of the land , people and of course the diamonds 💖
Awesome. Love it.

Watching this makes me homesick for the home of my spirit
Great video
Très instructif . Merci .
strang that you have less views,,and i think u have amazing documentrary...ihope u wil have much more views son,,thanke you
because the video is uploaded before 1 month.... that's why less Views
It’s because of the background noise that is unnecessary and annoys the majority of people too much to continue watching
A car that can not be left unattended. Good job!
Enjoyable and educational.
Very informative
I'm impressed how "connected" you are.
I always wonder how much he pays these people in order to get such intimate access into delicate meetings. Especially at the private mines.
amazing diamond !
Fascinating.
Muito lindo os Diamonds.😎👍
Very informative :)
What do you have that is not heat treated?
Thank you Gus all information
Well, that was interesting. I wouldn’t mind having a diamond encrusted toaster.
I was just thinking The other day. how nice it would be to have a dimond Toilet.the seat would be Gold.the Tank Lid pink Dimond's.the Tank Blue Dimond's.lol.
Maybe later you will have it unexpectedly.
Pity! Oh you poor things don’t have that yet? Then one Must ask oneself: “Self, What am I doing with My Life as in why Don’t I have a flawless diamond toaster or golden toilet encrusted with pink AND blue diamonds?” Lol
Hint! ☝️You’ll find the answer is within...
I have ones red diamond from east kalimantan
....where ican sell it...can you help me
Awesome video...!
Its from Borneo... its part of my beautiful country Indonesia...😍😍😍
Очень интересно и познавательно.Как будто сам ,лично,побывал среди этой красоты...
Diamonds are not very heavy, and, in fact, because they have a greasy/adamantine lustre, very small diamonds can very easily be washed away! I worked for diamond exploration companies in Western Australia and for the company which found the Argyll Diamond Mine, which, at one time, was the world's biggest producer of diamonds, BY VOLUME. The pinks and the champagne coloured diamonds were Argyll's speciality colours. When people mention "white" diamonds, the correct term should be "colourless" diamonds! I still prefer natural/uncut/rough diamonds to cut ones.
Interesting thanks!
Can you tell me the contact info of the man that cut that huge diamond? I want to ask him some question.
Wow I Love Borneo Or Kalimantan In Indonesia..Diamond Or Intan Or Berlian Or Galuh...
This guy driving around with all these stones,I wonder how happy and peaceful his life is?
Very humble, cultured, easy going HEAD HUNTERS. Pontianak was the place where a long lost 800yrs old rituals was performed before heads were severed.
Mam, do you buy natural burman ruby
Using all those diamonds in a car, however expensive and rare it may be, is so tacky lol
Leave it to the UAE to waste rare gems in such a way.
I agree. To me, it's disgusting.
They have a LOT more money than sense! It was so VERY Vulgar.
Honestly, wasteful and horrible human being-honestly wasteful and horrible human beings horrifying earth’s treasure and humanity’s labor...
Diamonds are not rare contrary to the liars in the industry.
You are being overtly critical. None of the diamonds are damaged. When diamonds are bought and sold, money changes hands. This set of diamonds have benefited the poor people of Indonesia. Normally it would have taken a long time for each individual diamond to be sold. Studding his car with diamonds is his art. The diamonds are not lost. Anytime each diamond can be re-purposed. I think this gentleman did a noble thing by spending his money. The rich people in the Middle East are big spenders. Their investments and expenditures help a lot of companies in western countries and generate a lot of employment for many people across the world. I would also like to thanks Patrick! Thanks to his videos many people get to learn about the poor and struggling people of Africa, Myanmar, Indonesia, etc. These videos create a charm for these far off places and attract tourists. Also very educational, informative and top class videos!
Great.colour diands are the most beautyfull on earth.
I love he is going to do a new way of mounting the gems (Super Glue)
Ok... I wasn’t the only one.
Gaffer tape is better.
Well-done! Informative, exotic, exciting. However, I must say, I would be on-edge, having eight or ten of those hungry-looking dudes clustering around me, as I haggled, for valuable stones! What is to prevent several of them following you along, and finding opportunity, to whack you, over the head, for your gems?
I wouldnt be surprised if the crew had a couple armed guards that were off camera
all that amount of diamonds makes you really stick more and more to ruby's and emeralds , since they are rare gems compared to diamonds ....
Bruh... if you feel like emeralds are rare, think again
What is the name of this country
J'adore votre travail Monsieur Voillot.
Amazing im from in indonesia
Wonderful indonesia
Diamonds are precious.
Nice
Very nice👍👍🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
I thought it was illegal for anyone but the dayak to cut down any trees there? If so, i am pretty sure those logging companies should either be in jail or they're not the ones cutting them down. Forgive me if i am wrong. I just thought the Dayak tribe are the only ones allowed to cut any trees down.
We export it to your Country as demand for it is high...
the eyes of the young woman setting the stones in the car dash are more jewel than any diamond...
what glue did they use on the stones??
Bonza glue l9l
@@kjnmava do you have a link for that glue/company that mfg/sells it?
iv'e had no luck with google finding it.. thanks
Super glue, nothing else would hold them.
the french jeweller was "studying 6 months" to cover a plastic car trim piece with diamonds with no artistic flair. just cover trim in a rectangle shape
How Many carat Whas that in the car?
I read that diamonds from Borneo are harder than diamonds from elsewhere.
ทักทายสวัดดีมีสุขสมหวังทุกคน.ขอบคุณทางรายการณ์มากรับชมถึงจะนานก็ยังดีและแจ๋วมากเพื่อนำมาประยุคไช้และศึกษาในวันหน้า.ขอบคุณสวัดดี..ทักทายจากประเทศไทย..
Beau et bon reportage, de la part d'1 acheteur de brut .........
The musical 🎼instruments I find valuable
Trying to contact you but unable to reach
Great job on this documentary. I don't understand why your narrator speaks over the woman who spoke English quite well. It was very distracting. IMHOP Thank you for your work!
It has been said that the statement: “extremely rare” should not be used to describe diamonds as this is mostly untrue and exaggerated. Everyone that follows the story of diamonds knows that the monopolies were behind the birth of this myth. Used to inflate prices and control the supply chain, this ploy continues to sold be to idiots who buy into it. An industrially created diamond is identical to any natural and that adds to the debunking of this fallacy. I’m not even sure this is even true for what’s considered large stones.
what IS rare is this planet...THE ONLY ONE....n here we are destroying it for glints of glitter. THAT is the true depravity.
@@michelebourke4340 Absolutely true! Humans SUCK!
@@peek2much3 Many many people profit from the labour that comes with finding, cutting diamonds etc, if he and other rich people would not buy this a lot of people would be out of a job, bit weird u say humans suck etc, please judge less
It's a shame how even the first sentences mislead the audience.
Talking about a volcanic island then we see a komodo dragon, eventually the narrator concludes that we are in Borneo.
First off Borneo is not a volcanic island, in fact there are no volcanoes in Borneo at all.
Komodo dragons don't live in Borneo but on Komodo island, hence the name.
Still have 51 minutes left till the end and I wonder how many more errors will be there.
Such an amazing docu. Im from Indonesia.
Mantap
Gems lover from Indonesia always monitor ♥️♥️😍😍😇👍
I am Descendent DAYAK the indigenous forrerst first people nation of Borneo
Kalimantan gems mostly amethys, emerald, diamond, and agate. Martapura town in south kalimantan is the central gems market of the whole island.
That car story is bizarre. Pretty much kills any fantasies of world peace and universal good will.
That car is beautiful
How to sale a natural ruby pm me
I find it appalling that these people will spend millions on frivolous things when people just a few miles down the road are starving due to their greed. We live in a backwards world.
indeed...
Exactly.
@Johnny Habib you've heard the crown princes saying haven't you? One of them said "my father ride a camel, I drive a mercedes, and my son/grandson (cannot remember which one) will ride a camel"
@Johnny Habib you seem to not understand the quote.
@Johnny Habib buddy you're assuming way too much you need to get your ass on somewhere

Hi bro..u from borneo?sabah or srawak?
@Ebby Erica thats a nice thing to have, maybe you can keep it.
Interesting video. Sadly the owner of the car, probably has no idea of the work that went into the making of his gaudy car.
Indonesia kekayaan sumber alamnya berlimpah ruah termasuk Pulau Kalimatan/ Borneo island..

Joy to others bring joys to all .promote it .
Muito bien
im from Borneo. this channel is so tense. i feel scared.... a bit speechless.
maybe to them gemstones are WAR ITEMS.
to some maybe.
but here is my story..
i grew up amongst Borneo people. i play wt all kind of gemstones... all.. evn maybe we dont hv english of frenchy words... or they dont evn know (THANKS GOD THOSE WEST HUMAN DONT KNOW OR THEY COME AGAIN TO TERROR UND TO COLON).
i play wt gemstones since kid.. my uncles came with satin cloth in bundles. some gems from rivers.. from sea bottoms.. from under super hard wood.. from shell animals.. from granites or sandstones earth.. from heavy rain..
pearl.. stones of all colors were in bowls.. in my mother kitchen.. offered.. sold.. or given to reletives.
im shocked tat people were shocked at stories of diamonds.. bla this blaa blaa that.
some people dont even know of GREEN PEARl.. water pearls.. deep sea pearl.. ocean pearls..
ocean stones are amazing colors to play.
they are all just stones.. but if you want it like crazy.. you can give all the millions.. billions..
but living in island... they just stones to us.... WE WILL LAUGH UND THINK U MAD IF WE SEE YOU WALK AROUND WITH STRING AROUND YR NECK UND STICK THOSE STONES AROUND YR NECK.. or put some wire und stuck them to put on top yr head.. the lightning come und kill you.
so.... when i was kid i was playing wt my brotrs.. sisters.. island friends..und we were allll RICHER THAN TODAY QUEENS.. DIVAS. MAHARAJAHS..becos when we tired.. we just left them.. till next play. the game we love most was SIMBAN PLAY... TING TING PLAY... HIDE N SEEK STONES.. YOU BUY I SELL GAME.. und many more.
hmm.. o well...
my mother hv collections of ugly ugly pearls.. she dont like stupit round pears. she like twin pears stuck together... pregnant pearl.. pearl inside pearl....burst pearl(look like the skin burst und inside bigger pearl. mountain pearl where a big piece und ontop look like many small big mountain..
aah.. i hv seen thousand kind.. many colors.
o well
hmmm.
I have some material you contect me
the last sentence in this documentary epitomises the level of insanity of these current times. i hope the Mother exerts unparalleled revenge.
Great video, but i hate the end part.. lavish Arabs, while people struggles to survive..!!!
Minerals like this are common in my land/property idk what kind it is tho, from north borneo
tenho de 67 kilates outros muitos bonitos de todas as cores!...
@44:34 Covering an Aston Martin's interior in diamonds, for a rich UAE client. They have run out of ideas and have no where else to wear/put their jewellery so they bejewel their cars?! Absolutely ridiculous! The diamonds would be more valuable if they were still in the ground.
@48:26 Finished product looks tacky! No different than Caligula's palace filled with Filigree gold + gemstones gleaming in the candlelight 2500 years ago.
Actually they are worthless in the ground until they are polished. Also think of it this way, those poor people would not be able to earn a living. You can only have so many farmers or fisherman.
I loved the car!❤️
very eye catching ~ but, ah hem, not affordable by me ~ ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ~
Jesus Christ, how wealthy that UAE guy must be to have 10,000 brown diamonds custom installed into a one-off luxury car dashboard. I'd bet that the cost of the logistics of locating, planning, cutting, sizing and installing the 10k diamonds is just as costly as the diamonds themselves!
👍удачи
Kalimantan or borneo is the only place in Indonesia where diamonds can be found. Been there the islands forest now is almost gone for palm plantation..
