We are just reveling in all of this Old Hollywood glamour!
Elizabeth Taylor, the original celebrity (famous for not only her movie star status but her personal life as well), was always “frosting” herself in diamonds and jewels.
Expected to bring in over $30 million dollars, the auction will take place at Christie’s in New York on December 13 through December 14.
These are the top jewels that Elizabeth Taylor received from the great loves of her life, Mike Todd and Richard Burton. They’re from moments in life that were very dear to her.
says jewelry expert Rahul Kadakia
Elizabeth explained in My Love Affair With Jewelry:
I never, never thought of my jewelry as trophies. I’m here to take care of them and to love them. When I die and they go off to auction I hope whoever buys them gives them a really good home.
We hope they go to good homes too. They belonged to a woman who would give any celebrity of today a run for her money. She started it all.
