Rare Jewels Worth $100 Million Visit Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi is hosting a collection of the world's rarest jewels, estimated to be worth approximately $100 million. The most notable of these is the world's second-largest blue diamond, which will be auctioned by Sotheby's in Geneva next month and is expected to fetch approximately $20 million.

This exhibition, titled "Beyond: The World's Rarest Diamonds," will be held on Wednesday and Thursday, April 9 and 10, at the Bassam Freiha Art Foundation on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi. It offers a rare opportunity to view exceptional jewelry, including eight diamonds weighing over 700 carats.

Visitors to the exhibition can take guided tours to learn about the significance of each gem on display, including a 100-carat white diamond, a 100-carat orange-brown diamond, a 40-carat light pink diamond, a 31-carat vivid orange-pink diamond, a 303-carat yellow-brown diamond, and the world's second-largest red diamond at 5.05 carats.

This is in addition to the 10.03-carat Mediterranean Blue Diamond, the world's second-largest blue diamond. This stone is distinguished by its vibrant color, exceptional clarity, and cushion-cut design. After Abu Dhabi, it is expected to travel to Taipei, Hong Kong, and New York before being auctioned by Sotheby's in Geneva next May.

This exhibition is a unique event that brings together these rare stones in one place and provides an unrepeatable opportunity to see them together.
