Princess Soraya’s Royal Bulgari 18-karat gold necklace

 Wherever or whatever it was — a gala opera in Paris, a party in Marbella, a ball in St. Moritz — she always made a dramatic entrance, beautifully dressed but a little distant. Her parures of diamonds, rubies, sapphires and emeralds were signed by the greatest names in jewelry: Cartier, Bulgari, Harry Winston, Van Cleef & Arpels.
