ARGYLE MUSE™2.28 Carat Fancy Purplish Red Diamond
An Opportunity That May Never Present Itself Again
It is with great pride that we present the Argyle Muse™, one of the most important and rarest colored diamonds ever to emerge onto the global market.
This extraordinary diamond weighs 2.28 carats, carries the coveted Fancy Purplish Red color grade, and has been fashioned into an elegant oval cut. Its origin from the legendary Argyle Mine in Western Australia, whose operations permanently ceased in 2020, makes it an irreplaceable natural treasure.
The Argyle Muse™ was the signature stone of the prestigious 2018 Argyle Pink Diamonds Tender, achieving the highest price of any diamond offered that year. It subsequently became the most valuable diamond ever sold in the 34-year history of the Argyle Tender. Furthermore, it was the largest Fancy Purplish Red diamond ever presented through an Argyle Tender.
Exceptional Rarity
Red diamonds are among the rarest natural diamonds on Earth. Only an infinitesimal fraction of all diamonds mined worldwide are ever awarded a red color designation by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). Diamonds of this color, provenance, and size are virtually never available on the open market.
At 2.28 carats, the Argyle Muse™ belongs to a category of diamonds that is scarcely represented even within the world's most distinguished private collections, foundations, and museums. To the best of current market knowledge, no comparable Fancy Purplish Red diamond of this size and Argyle provenance is publicly available for acquisition anywhere in the world.
An Asset of Global Significance
The Argyle Muse™ embodies every characteristic that defines the value of a truly exceptional natural diamond:
• Origin from the legendary Argyle Mine
• Fancy Purplish Red color grade
• 2.28 carat weight
• Elegant oval cut
• Historic provenance from the 2018 Argyle Tender
• Record-setting stone of the Argyle Tender
• Extraordinary global rarity
• An irreplaceable offering following the closure of the Argyle Mine
Destined for the World's Greatest Collections
Very few natural diamonds transcend the category of gemstone and attain the status of a historical object. The Argyle Muse™ belongs to this exceptionally exclusive class.
For billionaires, family offices, sovereign wealth funds, museums, and the world's foremost collectors of exceptional natural diamonds, the question is not whether such a stone is valuable, but whether the opportunity to acquire a comparable diamond will ever exist again.
The Argyle Muse™ is not merely a diamond. It is an irreplaceable chapter in the history of diamonds-formed by nature, discovered in a mine that is now permanently closed, and possessing a rarity that is considered extraordinary even among the most elite collecting circles.
An asset for generations. A masterpiece for eternity. An opportunity that may never be repeated.
