Two dazzling pink and blue pear-shaped diamonds have together sold for $57,425,000 to a private buyer at Sotheby's auction house.

Sotheby's said the Apollo and Artemis stones are "by far the most important pair of earrings ever offered at auction".

They were offered to buyers separately at the auction house's Magnificent Jewels and Noble Jewels sale in Geneva, but were purchased by the same buyer.
