A ring featuring a 30.10-carat diamond will be on offer at an upcoming Elmwood’s auction in London, where it could fetch up to GBP 1.2 million ($1.6 million).
The piece, bearing an emerald-cut, G-color, VVS2-clarity diamond solitaire, will star at the November 11 Fine Jewellery auction, Elmwood’s said last week.
The auction house sold a similarly sized white diamond in March, when a 26.36-carat round brilliant-cut diamond realized GBP 1 million ($1.3 million). That stone was the largest diamond to go under the hammer in the UK in a decade.
“This is an exceptionally impressive diamond, not only for its remarkable…carat size but also for its attractive…color and…clarity,” said Joe Kendrick, head of sale at Elmwood’s auctioneers. “To be offering another stone of this caliber just eight months after our record-breaking sale in March is particularly exciting. It is a remarkable opportunity for collectors seeking something truly special.”
