CHRISTIE’S AUCTION HOUSE says it has reached an agreement with Elizabeth Taylor’s family to sell her prized jewellery collection, as well as some of her art, clothing and other memorabilia.
The screen star was known for her passion for opulent diamonds, and she published a book in 2003 entitled, “Elizabeth Taylor: My Love Affair with Jewelry”. Her collection has included some of the world’s most expensive stones.
Christie’s says it is planning a series of auctions that will be announced later this spring.
Taylor died last month at age 79.
