The jewel has the highest per-carat estimate of any pink diamond

Quek Chin Yeow, deputy chairman of Sotheby's international jewellery business in Asia, commented: "This colour is one of the most beautiful and concentrated shades of pink in diamonds that I have seen.

"Together with its exceptional clarity, it is not surprising that it would command the highest per-carat pre-sale estimate for any pink diamond to date."

The Pink Dream is the world's most valuable pink diamond, having sold for $83.1m at Sotheby's New York in November last year.
