RAPAPORT... Jewels designed by Boehmer et Bassenge’s new boutique Maison de Haute Joaillerie will co-lead a Christie’s auction in Geneva next month.

A pair of diamond earrings named Miroir de l’amour is estimated to fetch $20 million to $30 million at the Magnificent Jewels sale on November 15. They feature the world’s largest pair of pear-shaped, D-color, flawless diamonds with a symmetrical cut and weigh 52.55 carats and 50.47 carats, Christie’s said.

In addition, the sale will feature a necklace from Maison de Haute Joaillerie comprising three central diamonds: a round, 31.38-carat diamond and two pear-shaped diamonds weighing 12.11 and 8.07 carats – all three of which are D-color and flawless. The stones are accented by 3.92 carats of intense pink diamonds. The necklace, named Le Jardin d’Isabelle, is estimated at $8 million to $12 million.

Both pieces will be offered without a reserve price, “something unseen in the auction world for such important pieces of jewelry,” Christie’s said.

Also at the Geneva sale, Christie’s will auction a pear-shaped, 9.14-carat, fancy vivid pink diamond estimated at $16 million to $18 million.
