A collection of Elizabeth Taylor’s jewelry is coming to Moscow and will be on display in GUM’s Exhibition Hall on Sept. 15-16.
The exhibition features the star’s jewelry and some of her clothing items. Visitors will have a chance to covet a ring with “the finest ruby known to the mankind,” as the Hollywood icon described the Christmas present she received from her then husband Richard Burton.
The Russian capital is the starting point for a world tour for the “most outstanding and significant private collection” before it is to be sold at a Christie’s auction in New York this December, Matthew Stephenson, managing director at Christie’s Russia said.
