Fancies Auction Fetches Staggering Prices
In a record breaking auction as Sotheby’s a 3.73 carat fancy blue vivid diamond fetched a staggering $4.95. Fancy colors are rare and often attract high prices. Other fancies were also sold at the same auction, including a vivid purplish pink diamond ring, and a fancy light pink diamond ring. Rare antique diamond jewelry was also auctioned on the same day.
I think fancies are extraordinary in their beauty and uniqueness. It’s incredible to think what thousands of years of geological pressure and lead to an extraordinary creation of nature that can then be placed in an engagement ring.
