属于黎巴嫩亿万富翁银行家爱德蒙萨遗孀丽莉萨的珠宝在周一瑞士的义卖活动中被晚上拍出了3790万美元的高价。
Jewels belonging to Lily Safra, the billionaire widow of Lebanese banker Edmond Safra, fetched $37.9 million on Monday night in a charity sale in Switzerland. And one ruby and diamond ring sold for a record price of $6.7 million.
The gems sold for almost double the pre-sale estimate at the Christie's auction. Sixty-nine gems in total were sold but the crown jewel was a 32.08 carat ruby and diamond-ring by Chaumet, which was sold at a world-record price of $6.7 million, the highest auction price of any ruby.
The private collection of Lily Safra also included diamonds and sapphires as well as antique pieces dating to the late 18th-century. Proceeds from the auction will be donated to charitable institutions selected by Safra.
