What an impressive collection! I wonder if the pieces fetch more than what the estimate is, especially for the Cartier Diamond Tiara. It looks like the little sister of the Cartier Essex tiara. That diamond and pearl necklace is divine!
If you read a bit into the background, it’s not a pretty history behind the sale of the jewels. I wonder of the current Earl bought any of them back?
