The Gem Worth $175 Million: Who Would Want to Buy It?
Meet the world's priciest sapphire, the 'Blue Star,' weighing in at 1,400 carats. It's the largest gem ever found, and it already has a buyer.
Who is willing to invest $175 million in a gemstone weighing about 280 grams, recently discovered in a mine in Sri Lanka? The owner's identity remains anonymous, unlike the gem that was purchased at auction.

I estimated it was the world's largest Blue Star sapphire, so I decided to go to the edge and take a gamble on it for the largest amount. It's too large to be set into any jewelry, but I believe we can find a worthy museum to display it," said the 'happy' buyer.
