This is a Flawless blue diamond. This blue diamond is one the rarest gems in the world. But now, it has has been snapped up by a British jeweller for a record-breaking sum of almost £4million….!!!
It has sold for £4 million at a Sotheby’s auction in Hong Kong. This makes it the most expensive gemstone in the world, per carat, sold at auction. After intense bidding, the 6.04 carat, internally flawless blue diamond fetched £650,000 per carat. The buyer was Moussaieff Jewellers in London, which has a reputation for acquiring extremely rare and costly gemstones.
Man…. I wonder how much they will sell this blue diamond after this.
