Well, they are more interested in things like these if there is lot of
mileage associated with it. This necklace did not have lot of press
coverage and it seems not lot know she was the one originally
possessing the kohinoor.

I am sorry, there was sufficient press coverage discussing this
auction. But, again I could not find out who brought the necklace. If
anyone comes across the buyer's details please us let know it.

The name of a buyer at a public auction is not normally published.
