Description
A mysterious necklace laden with some 500 diamonds and with possible links to a scandal that contributed to the downfall of Marie Antoinette, sells for $4.8 million at an auction in Geneva. The 18th century jewel containing around 300 carats of diamonds had been estimated to go under the hammer at the Sotheby's Royal and Noble Jewels sale for $1.8-2.8 million. "The client who bought it is ecstatic," says chairman of the Sotheby's jewelry department Andres White Correal. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
