Rare Blue Diamond Sells For Record Price At Sotheby's Auction.

A rare 5.16-carat blue diamond sold at auction for $6.4 million in Hong Kong on Wednesday, confirming Asia's fast-growing taste for the precious stone.

London's famed Moussaieff Jewellers paid more than the $5.9 million expected price tag for the pear-shaped stone, the first blue diamond from the celebrated De Beers Millennium Jewels Collection to appear at auction.


But the world per-carat record for a blue diamond remains the $10.5 million paid by a Hong Kong property tycoon for a seven-carat blue diamond in Geneva in May last year.


In December, a five-carat chickpea-sized vivid pink gem set a per-carat world record price for a diamond when it fetched $10.8 million at an auction in Hong Kong.
