Our flagship jewelry sale in Geneva is a true highlight of the auction calendar. Curated by Sotheby’s international team of experts, our High Jewelry sale will offer desirable signed Jewels from the world’s most esteemed Haute Joaillerie houses, vintage jewels, exceptional coloured stones and remarkable diamonds. We are particularly thrilled to announce that the sale will be headlined by The Mediterranean Blue, an exceptionally rare and magnificent Fancy Vivid Blue diamond weighing 10.03 carats. Named for its mesmerizing hue recalling the azure Mediterranean waters, this recently discovered diamond, polished as an elegant cushion-shape, stands as one of the most exciting coloured diamonds to be offered for sale at Sotheby’s in living memory.

As the global leader in luxury auctions, Sotheby’s continually responds to the changing profiles and behaviors of the modern collector. To this end, our legendary Magnificent Jewels auctions have been renamed ‘High Jewelry,’ a title that aligns more closely with today’s increasingly digital marketplace. This change raises our online visibility, furthering our reach to new audiences and confirming our commitment to outstanding results. What remains unchanged, however, is the extraordinary quality and rarity of the jewels we offer and the superlative client experience provided by our specialists.

We are currently accepting consignments for this exceptional auction until the end of March. Please contact our specialists to receive a free and confidential valuation.
