When the man purchased the remarkable emerald, he was also offered a 69.42 carat pear shaped diamond, which was then acquired by Richard Burton for Elizabeth Taylor, known as the ‘Taylor-Burton Diamond’. The Pear Shaped diamond is also set to be a top seller at the Elizabeth Taylor Jewells collection auction at Christies, New York in December.   Keeping in-line with Hong Kong roots and culture, the auction will also feature a jadeite pendant with a rare balance of colour, translucency and texture.   The sale will take place on the 29th of October at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre.
