Hong Kong actress Rosamund Kwan was once considered the most beautiful woman in the metropolitan. She is also a jewelry collector of great passion and discernment.
Dozens of vintage pieces by renowned jewelers and designers in her belonging will go under the hammer in Hong Kong with part of the proceeds to benefit charitable purposes. Highlights include a diamond ring featuring a 12.46-carat ruby and a jadeite carving showing Guanyin bodhisattva, the goddess of compassion and mercy.
They were exhibited at Christie's previews of autumn auctions in Beijing and Shanghai. The items will be sold at Christie's sales on Nov 28.
