What would you do with the rarest blue diamond in the world? 💎

Only three intense blue diamonds over 10 carats have appeared at auction in 20 years. Frank Everett and Phyllis Kao take you behind the scenes at Sotheby’s to imagine the impossible: How do you design for a stone this rare?

From a "royal" stick pin to a genius 1970s ring hack, see which design wins. Which one would you wear? ✨ This rare and intense blue diamond is on offer as a part of the High Jewelry sale in Sotheby's New York on 16 June.
