Australian award for 'Diamonds and Pearls,' recognizing "sales exceeding three times platinum"

Official Australian Record Industry Association (ARIA) multi-platinum sales award presented "to Jill Willis to celebrate outstanding success in Australia with sales exceeding three times platinum for the recording 'Diamonds and Pearls.'" Framed with its plate, three discs (signifying 3x platinum) and the CD cover to an overall size of 20.25 x 16.25. In fine condition.
