“ I wish I could have also attended this historical moment with my Brother Davide in Hong Kong today, but the family business has always put client relationships first as its foundation. That is what made us grow strong, and that will be the reason we will continue to grow even stronger”, commented Bruno Scarselli.

We know that the buyer of the Aurora Green Diamond is Chow Tai Fook, who’s was actually in the room bidding against two phone bidders. The winning bidder had paddle #9201.

Will we ever see a larger Fancy Vivid Green Diamond anytime soon? your guess is as good as mine, but one thing we can be sure of, and that is that the unique features and extraordinary colors, will make Fancy Color Diamonds even more special in the coming years, as the market, both private and investment, are more aware, and more educated about them.

As time goes by, the market will increase its desire and passion for Fancy Color Diamonds, and will continue to see it as a wealth preservation asset class….on its own.
