“红粉明星”一颗59.6克拉的粉色稀有钻石 周末在日内瓦拍卖，以68 000 000 franc 成交。世界上有史以来成交额最高的宝石。 购买者身份成谜。Sotheby拍卖行在周末拍卖了这颗稀世珍宝。  The 'Pink Star', a huge flawless pink diamond, was auctioned for 68 million Swiss francs in Geneva on Wednesday, a world record price for a gemstone, Sotheby's said. The oval-shaped diamond, mounted on a ring, weighed in at 59.60 carats. It was bought by a man bidding in the room, who told reporters that he was buying it on behalf of an anonymous person whom he represented.

Sotheby's said it was still calculating the final price, which will include the buyer's premium. It was the star lot at Sotheby's semi-annual jewellery sale in Geneva, held in a heavily-guarded hotel showroom, which followed strong Hong Kong auctions last month. The previous record was held by the "Graff Pink", a 24.78 carat fancy intense pink diamond bought by Laurence Graff, the London-based jeweller known as "The King of Diamonds", in 2010 for 45.44 million Swiss francs. 原文http://www.moneycontrol.com/news ... eby%60s_989464.html |
