Geneva, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – A mixed performance at Christie’s fine jewels auction Thursday in Geneva echoed the results at Sotheby’s the night before: on the one hand a record sale was made for a sapphire ring but on the other, half of the lots were unsold at the end of the evening.
The 42.28 carat Kashmir sapphire ring sold for CHF4.187. Overall, sales totaled CHF21.5 million. Sotheby’s sales were CHF17.9m.
