While the largest D-color flawless diamond went for nearly £8 million at Sotheby’s last year, Christie’s might see a diamond being sold out for as much as £10 million when it goes on sale in London at the auction house in King Street, St James’s, London, on Friday 5 December and from Sunday 7 to Tuesday 9 December.
The Wittelsbach diamond, that is almost an inch across, was given to Infanta Margarita Teresa by her father King Philip IV of Spain on her engagement to her uncle Leopold I of Austria. The Wittelsbach diamond is said to be originated from the Indian diamond mines. It was then passed into the Austrian and then Bavarian crown jewels, before being sold into individual hands in 1931. This stunning 35.56 carat gem is almost an inch across and is the star lot in Christie’s auction Jewels. Via:  bornrich |
