Rare pink diamond worth $35 million set for auction in New York

[Still Waters]

A rare, vividly rosy-purple diamond, called the Eternal Pink and valued at $35 million, is set to be auctioned off by Sotheby's as part of its Magnificent Jewels sale in New York in June.

The 10.57-carat stone is being marketed as the most valuable purplish-pink diamond ever brought to auction, with the highest ever pre-auction price per carat estimate, according to Sotheby's.

According to Sotheby's, the stone, which was mined in Botswana, is "comparable to ultimate masterpieces of art—far rarer than a Magritte or a Warhol," thanks to its clarity and lack of imperfections.
