The flagship of the sale in Sotheby’s Fine Jewelry: diamond “Fancy Intense Pink“

We have already discussed the estimates and price of its rarity (it is estimated VVS2 for a diamond of color)

But let’s look at the object:

Coming from a private collection, from Harry Winston, so it appeared 60 years ago, giving little clue to its origin, about who created the ring, which has cut …

We can speculate Sotheby’s said it would have been cut shortly before his first sale since the technique of size could be dated to that time, or late 40s, early 50s: size rectangular beveled , which shows the original shape of the gem.

This diamond was likely to come from Africa by Sotheby‘s.

From this assumption, a collector, an amateur could imagine many more but the mystery is well suited to the jewel.

The intense pink color that comes from the gem is found by two triangular diamonds that hug.
