A Diamond Crown

Disclaimer - this came from a dream

But is it possible?

I know that diamond is one of the toughest rocks, but it is quite clearly able to be cut otherwise the only diamonds in circulation would be giant boulders

So - is it possible to have a crown made from a diamond?

In the dream it was a whole-head crown that was carved from a diamond, and then encrusted with gold (as opposed to the usual way of doing things!)
 
Perhaps some small crown. Quiet large probably would break neck but small might be theoritecally be possible. But another thing is would there be piece of large enough which could be carved as crown.
