Jewelry Rings

Many people assume that Marilyn Monroe owned jewelry boxes filled with diamonds, pearls and precious stones. It is true that she has to use a lot of these things – that a great start screen Hollywood sex symbol, often given jewelry to wear on loan at no cost by jewelers, who wanted to use for their promotional purposes. So she has to look far from being free and free advertising.

But the truth is, Marilyn Monroe has only owned two pieces of real jewelry high class, and both were gifts from her husband, Joe DiMaggio. One was a 16-inch Akoya necklace, a necklace of 44 pearls Mikimoto of Japan, who bought into his honeymoon. The other was his diamond and platinum Eternity Band that was given by Joe on their wedding day (which started an "eternity" that lasted nine months). This sparkling, of fire, the royal ring, which was the commitment of both Marilyn and her wedding ring at the same time, held 35 (some say 36) baguette-cut diamonds (cut in form of a narrow rectangle). In 1999, Christie's auction this ring of $ 772,500 despite missing one of the diamonds. Its pre-auction estimated price: $ 30,000 to $ 50,000.

Indeed, the necklace was given to a friend of Marilyn Paula Strasberg, wife of his mentor and acting coach Lee Strasberg, after her divorce Joe's daughter Paula, Susan returned to Mikimoto in 1998 and has been on display ever since.

Marilyn and Joe had dated for two years. Then on January 12, 1954, Joe proposed to Marilyn, and a few days later went to San Francisco City Hall to marry in secret, intensely private ceremony to which only invited six people. But someone leaked the news of this, even to the press, and instead of only six people more than a hundred fans, reporters and photographers attended the ceremony. Marilyn was wearing a simple dress of chocolate, while Joe emotionally wearing the same tie on his first date with a simple blue suit.

All the other jewels of Marilyn Monroe ever owned was wearing jewelry. She was always a simple girl named Norma Jean Mortenson in his heart.
