Whoa. Christie's Auction House just put Elizabeth Taylor's jewelry collection on display. I think the last time I saw this much garish kitsch was when my Aunt Pearl got a Bedazzler for Christmas.
A couple things I found interesting:
A gold and ivory necklace featuring ivory opera passes, circa 18th and 19th centuries, a gift from the estate of Edith Head.
A charm bracelet given to Taylor by Richard Burton. One of the 20 charms is a locket that opens to reveal four medallions, each one engraved with the name and birthdate of one of Taylor’s children.
If you want to add a few baubles to your Christmas list or just see some of the collection at Christie's, click here. Although not my taste, I found it all really pretty fascinating. Bling-ba-da-bing! Miss Bea
