This piece dates back to 1695 from Colombia where it was carved with Islamic prayers surrounded by floral motifs before being brought over during Indian times before ending up under Mughal rule who were known for their luxurious lifestyles such as this jewel represents.

In 2001 when this emerald went up for sale again through Christie's Auction House which had previously held three other auctions between 1970 – and 1989 including those items belonging to Elizabeth Taylor amongst others, it fetched an incredible sum amounting to 2.2 million dollars thereby setting another record price achieved for any single item sold at public auction anywhere in the world that year!

The Chalk Emerald

Another noteworthy stone is ‘The Chalk Emerald’ weighing around 38cts once set into a platinum ring surrounded by sixty pear-shaped diamonds designed by Harry Winston himself after recutting from its original shape (37ct)which had been part of Baroda Maharani’s necklace; he re-cutting this gem improved both its color and brilliance making it now one amongst some of the finest emeralds ever seen before.

Around 1972 Mr & Mrs. O.Roy Chalk donated their collection which included ‘The Chalk Emerald’ to the Smithsonian Institution where they still have it displayed today as part of their permanent National Gem Collection; anyone lucky enough to visit should not miss out on seeing such an amazing piece like this for themselves.

This was followed by a series of luxurious gifts from Burton that included a Bulgari-designed stunning emerald and diamond necklace, earrings, bracelet, and ring.

One of her signature pieces became Taylor’s Emerald Necklace which has a 23.46-carat pendant. The collection embodies all the glitz and glamour of Hollywood’s golden age while reflecting Taylor’s sophistication and larger-than-life personality.

It can be considered an extraordinary specimen due to its large size and deep green hue but what makes this gem so special is that it forms part of The Devonshire Collection housed at Chatsworth House situated in England where visitors come from far-off countries to see such historical jewels being displayed together under one roof which represents both grandeur as well as historical importance associated with them.
