Forget coal. Elizabeth Taylor got 8.24 carats of ruby and diamond for Christmas from Richard Burton in 1968. The ring reminds me of Kate Middleton's engagement ring, only ruby. Add it to your Christmas wish list?

It must have been amazing to be Elizabeth Taylor and receive those jewels. They're all stunning. They ruby set in the first photo is gorgeous (as is the photo of her husband and her. She looked she genuinely happy.) The ruby ring and sapphire necklace are also pretty as as well. It's hard to pick one piece from her vast jewels as a favorite as she had so many beautiful pieces!

Completely amazing. I especially the Ping-Pong diamond and her outfit in that shot.
