The Met Gala returned to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday evening, with everyone from Rihanna to Jared Leto in attendance at the annual fundraising event.
While the gowns often take centre stage, the jewels are just as important and this year, the guests did not disappoint – especially Anne Hathaway.
The award winning actress dazzled in a Swarovski crystal-embellished dress by Versace and a coin necklace by Bulgari.
Fine jewellery experts at Steven Stone have taken a close look at Anne’s necklace, revealing everything you need to know – including how much it’s likely to be worth.
Anne accesorised with a diamond and yellow gold necklace, set in a honeycomb design.
Custom made by Bulgari, the statement necklace is part of their Monete collection. Conceived in 1966, the collection incorporates ancient coins into modern yet timeless designs.
One of the most celebrated Bulgari icons ever, the pieces mounting antique coins have been introduced as a long-standing tradition in jewellery dating back to Ancient Rome.
The Monete collection has been worn by prolific figures including Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly and Candice Bergen.
“Anne Hathaway turned to Bulgari for a custom-made necklace to complete her Met Gala 2023 look. A Monete piece, the statement necklace is made with ancient roman coins.
Incorporating ancient coins into modern yet timeless designs, Bulgari’s Monete collection beautifully represents the heritage and pioneering spirit of the brand in a way that is palpable.
Anne’s necklace is likely to be worth around $350,000.”
