omen love accessories and precious stones, and when money is not an issue, we can spend whatever we want just to get those desirable jewels. How much you would be willing to spend for an accessory? Would you dare to pay a modest sum of 27.44 million dollars, equivalent to 19 million euros, for a necklace?
Although it sounds crazy, this was the cost of the famous “Hutton-Mdivani” necklace, sold in 2014; and thanks to that amount the necklace reaffirmed its title of world’s most expensive jade collar.
The “Hutton-Mdivani” necklace is a spectacular piece consisting of 27 imperial jade stones, perfectly polished and pearl shaped, which belonged to the Chinese Qing dynasty; and the Cartier jewelry was responsible for uniting the precious stones in this spectacular necklace in 1933.
Originally, the jewel costs over $ 55,000, paid by billionaire Frank Winfield Woolworth as a wedding gift to her granddaughter, the American heiress Barbara Hutton, who would marry Prince Alexis Mdivani. Since that time the piece was known as the “Hutton-Mdivani” collar.
Although it was purchased for the wedding of the young heiress, the marriage didn’t last long, her husband died after two years of marriage; it was presumed that in a date night with a lover the Prince suffered the accident that ended his life. Despite the tragic end of this story, the Hutton collar remained in the family for 40 years, before being auctioned for a staggering amount of $ 2 million in 1988. Since that time it was considered the most expensive jade necklace in the world.
The “Hutton-Mdivani” is a beautiful handmade piece of high gloss and color. Each of the beads that make up the garment is unique in its style. The person who paid the aforementioned sum is a collector of jewels.
It is well-known that the jade stone offers countless healthy benefits for their owners, for instance, it helps with heart problems to increase the body’s defenses. In the Chinese culture, jade is a symbol of power, perhaps for the rarity of some jade pieces that are so high-costs.
Every woman wants to have an expensive jewel to make her feel good on special occasions, and while there are few original garments that can be guaranteed, many do fantasize.
Nevertheless, what we can’t deny is that any woman in the world would like to have the beautiful and expensive necklace, so we ask you: if you were a millionaire, would you be able to pay $ 27 million for an accessory? Is it a good investment? Do you think it is worth spending so much money for a garment? Tell us what you think.
