That piece joins the Pink Petal, a pear-shaped, 8.41-carat, fancy-vivid-purple-pink diamond ring, estimated at up to $12 million, and a Cartier brooch featuring a 10.10-carat Burmese ruby and diamonds, with a $7.7 million high price.

The auction house will spotlight more than 120 jewels at the sale.
