A company controlled by Fabrice Finkelstein of the Belgian diamond family paid $6.6 million for a waterfront Venetian Islands home.

The Belgian corporation Finkelstein includes Finkelstein Diamonds, commercial and residential real estate arms, a water distribution company, Cartier and Piaget distributors, and a valet parking and related services company, according to its website. Corporate records show the buyer of the Miami Beach home, Fabrice Finkelstein, lists the firm’s Belgian headquarters as its address.
