The Beauty of a Brooch

Jewelry formerly owned by Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor will be auctioned by Sotheby's in London on Nov. 30. The American socialite whom Edward VIII famously gave up the throne of England to marry in 1937 had an exquisite collection jewelry. Some pieces of the collection are expected to bring as much as $2.3 million.
