 RAPAPORT... An Asian private buyer who acquired a pink diamond at Christie’s
Geneva this week has named the stone ‘The Light of Memory.’
The purchaser snapped up the pear-shaped, 9.14-carat, fancy
vivid pink, VS2-clarity diamond for $18.3 million (CHF 18.1 million), or $2
million per carat. The winning bid was made over the phone, Christie’s said.
The diamond, previously known as ‘The Pink,’ had been estimated
before the sale to fetch $16 million to $18 million.
