Sotheby’s is delighted to present the Infinite Blue, an 11.28-carat Fancy Vivid Blue diamond. The Infinite Blue has a captivating hue that alludes to the vastness of the ocean. Originating from the legendary Cullinan mine, the discovery of the rough for the Infinite Blue was a momentous occasion. Only 0.1% of the total mining production can produce blue diamonds, irrespective of the strength of color. The Blue Moon of Josephine, weighing 12 carats and found in the same mine, set an auction per-carat price record of US$ 4 million in 2015 with Sotheby’s, a record that holds to this day. Infinite Blue will tour around the world before an exhibition at Hong Kong Convention Center from the 2nd to the 5th of October. Private viewings will be available upon request.
