Elizabeth Taylor's La Peregrina Pearl Necklace by Cartier This extravagant necklace is special for a number of reasons. First, it was made by Cartier, a name known for producing some of the world's finest and most coveted jewelry. Then you have the provenance, since it was designed for actress Elizabeth Taylor to hold a very special bauble: the amazing 16th century La Peregrina Pearl purchased for her by Richard Burton in 1969. Given all that this grand piece of jewelry has going for it, it's no surprise that Christie's reported that it set two auction records: one for a historic pearl and another for a pearl jewel–bringing $11,842,500 at auction. #info #EverythingsInfo
