Elizabeth Taylor in the Ruby Suite
On holiday in 1957 Mike Todd presented Dame Elizabeth Taylor with the now infamous Ruby Suite – a ruby-and-diamond bib necklace complete with matching earrings and bracelet, cut from platinum gold. At the time, Taylor was in the swimming pool wearing a tiara by Cartier that Todd had given her previously. Without access to a mirror, she used the reflection of the water to see her new prize jewels.
