Over 1.4 Tons of Rough Emeralds to Go Up for Auction in Antwerp

An unprecedented opportunity for gemstone professionals. 

Auctim.com is hosting an exceptional online auction featuring 1,463 kilograms of rough Brazilian emeralds in 109 distinct lots. The collection spans a wide range of qualities — from commercial melee to vibrant near-gem-quality stones — representing a rare opportunity for professional buyers across the globe. 
 
The emeralds are offered as part of a court-ordered liquidation. Given the scale and diversity of the material, the auction is expected to attract strong international interest from cutters, manufacturers, traders and investors. 
 
“This sale stands out due to both the volume and the variety,” says Auctim CEO Christophe Moyersoen. “In addition to commercial-grade parcels, bidders will also discover premium material with strong cutting potential and color appeal.”

In-person viewings are available in Antwerp and are strictly limited to verified B2B bidders who have completed the registration process and paid the refundable warranty. Bidding is open from September 1 to 11, 2025, via Auctim’s secure online platform, with all lots going to the highest bidders after the auction closes.
