A remarkable 202.18-carat fancy intense yellow fancy colour diamond stole the show at the Magnificent Jewels show in Geneva, kicking off Christie’s first live auction of the year with a flourish. Dubbed the “Yellow Rose,” the unmounted gem originating from South Africa fetched an impressive US$6.7 million (C$9.15 million). The Yellow Rose marks the third instance where a stone of its colour, weighing more than 200 carats, has appeared in auction.
