专家说明

This natural pearl and diamond necklace reputedly belonged to Rajmata Gayatri Devi, wife of Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II of Jaipur. She was considered to be among the most beautiful women in the world and often traveled between India and Europe. Usually seen in a colorful chiffon sari and a string of pearls, the Rajmata was politically active, especially passionate about women's rights. After India's Independence, she had a landslide victory and was elected to the Lower House of India's bicameral Parliament in 1962.
