A Giveaway! Elizabeth Taylor for Avon Necklace

On Monday I commented that I would be doing a giveaway for a vintage Elizabeth Taylor for Avon necklace. I love this necklace because it is bold and definitely a statement necklace. I have this necklace and have worn it on the blog. This is not the necklace I have worn (I could not give it up), it is a new in the original purple box, beautifully packaged and with a purple drawstring storage bag. In 1994 when this came out as part of her Signature Gold Coast Collection it originally sold for $75.00.  It is a beautiful, well crafted piece of jewelry. I hope one of you will enjoy owning it. 


Elizabeth Taylor for Avon Necklace
Hammered metal (brass?) with and E in the center of each disc.
The necklace is shiny like it is shown here. It is really hard to photograph its true beauty. I would describe it as somewhere between the top photo and this photo. Really hard to capture.

This contest is open to all followers of my blog. You can follow me either through Google Friend Connect or BlogLovin'. Please leave a comment in the comments section which you use to follow this blog and you will be entered in the contest.  I will run this contest through next Sunday and announce the winner on Monday, March 12th. I will give the winner 48 hours to contact me. If I am not contacted, I will chose another winner. Good luck to you all.

  12. I'm pretty sure I follow by Google. I am always surprised by Avon Jewelry - it looks more real. But Avon is an interesting company. I think their labs produce many of the expensive face creams formulas used by other companies.

    1. I got this on ebay quite a while ago and the auction was for 2 of them. So, I have my own. I would not willingly give it up! It is far to beautiful. I did use mine for the photographs; the other necklace has never been out of the box.

  14. I just found you because "accessories" in your title caught my eye, I really really like accessories and also it is really cool to find a blogger who is actually in the same decade I am in. I am 60 and think I am reasonably still fashionable without looking 20. Thanks for your inspiration. I had forgotten that Avon featured Elizabeth Taylor jewelry. This necklace,like her, is gorgeous and still fabulously stylish.
