“Harry Winston acquired the most perfect diamond ever offered for sale at auction,” Rahul Kadakia, head of Jewelry for Christie’s Switzerland and Americas, told Reuters. “World record prices were set for diamonds, pearls and sapphires, thereby firmly establishing the international appetite for the most beautiful gems and jewels.”
