Dug up by Dubai-based Fura Gems, this humongous shiny red thing was the belle of the ball at a sale featuring 100 unique jewelry pieces. The mystery? It was bought by an anonymous telephone bidder. What’s the secret behind this mysterious, pricey stone, and who’s the phantom buyer? 🤔💭

Story: 🎥📜

How much is too much for a gigantic ruby? In an auction where even the air smelled expensive, the star of the show was none other than the Estrella de Fura, a ruby so large, it probably has its own gravitational field! 🤣💎 Originally birthed from a 101-carat rough stone found in Mozambique, this dazzling gem was the piece de resistance at an auction that could’ve doubled as a pirate’s treasure chest. 🔐🦜

But who’s the high roller that shelled out an eye-watering $34.8 million for it, setting a new record for a ruby sale? The intrigue thickens as the buyer remains veiled in anonymity, a phantom presence felt only through a telephone call. 😱📞

This not-so-little gem was the indisputable queen of a royal parade featuring 100 other unique jewelry pieces. It didn’t just sell, oh no, it commanded an auction, starting at a cool $21 million, only to close at a price that makes even the Kardashians’ spending habits look like child’s play! 🤑🏦

And to add an extra layer of sparkle, the Estrella de Fura didn’t just break any record, it smashed the previous record held by a measly (in comparison) 25.59-carat Burmese ruby, which sold for a total price of $30.33 million back in 2015. Talk about a glow-up! 💫✨

However, one can’t help but wonder, who’s the mystery buyer behind this gigantic gem? Could it be a billionaire looking for the world’s most expensive paperweight, or perhaps a celebrity preparing for the ‘gemstone edition’ of MTV Cribs? What’s for sure, is that the Estrella de Fura is a true rock star in every sense. But, what does one even do with a ruby that massive? Maybe it’s best to leave that to the imagination… for now. 🕵️‍♀️💭
