The Legendary Aga Khan Emerald Brooch

Crafted by Cartier in 1960, the famous Aga Khan Emerald Brooch features a magnificent 37-carat Colombian emerald, believed to have been mined in the legendary emerald mines of Muzo — a region known for producing the world’s finest emeralds.

The jewel was gifted by Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan to his wife, Nina Dyer, becoming one of the most iconic emerald pieces of the 20th century. After first appearing at auction in 1969, the historic brooch resurfaced decades later and stunned collectors when it sold for about $9 million at Christie's in Geneva in 2024.

From Colombia’s legendary emerald mines to one of the most famous auctions in the world, the Aga Khan Emerald remains a symbol of royal history, rarity, and timeless luxury. 💎
