Bid for Jackie Kennedy's Pearl Necklace at Vintage!

Part of the Pioneers of Popular Culture sale, the triple-strand simulated pearl necklace belonging to America's first lady is up for sale at Bonhams on the 15th August at the Vintage at Goodwood festival. Just another fabulous reason to go! 
The necklace is made up of champagne-coloured pearls with an imitation emerald-and-diamond sterling silver clasp.
The first lady wore the necklace while living at the White House and on a state visit to Colombia in 1961.

Jackie Kennedy was and is such a huge style icon, but how much would you pay for the presidential pearls?

  1. It's unlikely to sell for 99p, so probably out of my price range ;)
