The top lot at an upcoming Aste
Bolaffi auction is a diamond ring with an emerald-cut diamond of
10.40 ct. (starting price 320,000 euros).
Prestigious jewels, diamonds and watches will be the
highlights of the third Jewelry and Watch auction presented by
Aste Bolaffi on April 5 in Milan, at the Grand hotel et de
Milan.
This upcoming sale featuring 750 lots follows the
record-breaking sale of a rare, circular-cut, natural "Very
Light-Pink" diamond (VVS1 clarity), auctioned off at 755,000
euros last September, which became the highest-selling top lot
in the auction house's history.
Watches will open the sale at 10 am with a fine selection of
wristwatches, among which an elegant example of the Rolex Oyster
Chronographe Pre-Daytona in impeccable condition (starting price
40,000 euros).
At 2pm the part of the auction dedicated to jewelry will
begin. The top lot of the sale is a charming diamond ring with
an emerald-cut diamond weighing approximately 10.40 carats, F
color, VVS1 clarity, accompanied by a GIA report (starting price
320,000 euros).
Among the other highlights are a pair of diamond earrings by
Calderoni Milano of 14.50 carats (starting price 90,000 euros),
a diamond demi-parure Van Cleef & Arpels including a drop-shaped
ring and a pair of earrings (starting price 33,000 euros) as
well as a Faraone ring with a square-cut diamond weighing 2.70
carats (starting price 15,000 euros).
"After the success of the autumn auction," said CEO Filippo
Bolaffi, "we are returning with a new, high-quality proposal for
jewels and precious stones, with very prestigious lots whose
total starting prices amount to almost 1.5 million euros.
"We are also proud to present a watch catalogue which, for
the first time, includes a selection of wristwatches from the
most important brands, such as Patek Philippe and Rolex".
