Elizabeth Taylor’s Bracelets Sold for $65,000 to Kim Kardashian

by Laura Yarborough

This week at Christie’s New York, the Elizabeth Taylor Auction was a great success, selling an entire collection of stunning jewels which included a ring from Richard Burton, an actor she married twice. Also, a magnificent diamond and emerald necklace by Bulgari, but according to TMZ, one of the most impressive bids of the week came from Kim Kardashian. The reality star bid $64,900 for three jade and diamond bracelets by Lorraine Schwartz, despite the fact that the bracelets were estimated at the price of $8,000 for the auction. Kardashian still fascinated with the famous starlet, felt need to be closer to the violet-eyed actress, so she took home one of Taylor’s most precious jewels.
