Signed
pieces of Cartier and Tiffany jewelry belonging to a late
Montana copper mining heiress have sold for nearly $21 million
at a New York City auction.
Christie's said Tuesday's sale from the estate of Huguette Clark
had caught the attention of collectors worldwide. The star of
the collection, a rare pink cushion-cut 9-carat diamond ring,
sold for nearly $16 million.
The auction house had estimated the collection of 17 pieces
would bring between $9 million and $12 million.
The reclusive Clark was 104 when she died last year at New
York's Beth Israel Medical Center. Her father was U.S. Sen.
William A. Clark, once one of America's wealthiest, building a
fortune from mining copper and railroads.
