Elvis’s Diamond Ring To be Auctioned
Way back in 1975, Elvis took off his 10-carat diamond ring and gave it to a man in the audience during a concert. Now that ring, encrusted with 19 diamonds is all set to go under the hammer at an auction in Tallahassee in the US early December. The diamond ring is unique and it is the kind of ring only a celebrity would wear.
The fact that it is Elvis Presley’s ring is sure to bring in bidders from all over the world. Together with the ring, there are also cuttings from that period and an account of how the man got the ring gifted to him. The ring is made of gold though it isn’t known who exactly made it for Elvis who loved jewellery that was unique. The man who got it, Lloyd Perry, was sitting in the front row at the concert when Elvis threw his guitar into the audience. Lloyd’s friend kept it and then, Elvis asked Lloyd to come up onto the stage where he put his ring onto Lloyd’s finger. One can also bid for this diamond ring online.
