The sale
The Orange, a 14.82-carat Fancy Vivid Orange diamond, sold at Christie’s Geneva on 12 November 2013 for CHF32,645,000, reported as US$35,540,612.
Color takes center stage
The result demonstrates how a distinctive hue can become the central narrative of a diamond auction. In this case, the name is beautifully direct: the color itself is the identity.
What the result tells us
This is a dated sale result, not a price guide for orange diamonds. Assessment of any other stone requires its own documentation and examination. Exceptional auctions deserve to be enjoyed as stories without being mistaken for universal market rules.
