An officially-licensed replica of the "Heart of the Ocean" necklace from James Cameron's Titanic. In the film, treasure hunter Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton) explored the wreck of the Titanic in search of the Coeur de la Mer, aka the Heart of the Ocean necklace.
The mystery at the center of the film was how Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet) - who later identified herself as Rose Dawson Calvert (Gloria Stuart) - lost the necklace to her husband Cal Hockley (Billy Zane). In the final moments of the film, the older Rose revealed that she had kept it as a memento to her star-crossed lover, Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio), and tossed it into the sea.
Following the film's release, J. Peterman sold authorized replicas of the iconic necklace. This necklace features 84 faux diamonds in rhodium-plated settings with a detachable heart-shaped, blue faux 75-carat diamond solitaire encircled by a single row of faux diamonds. Also included is a blue hardcover J. Peterman Company box with blue velvet lining and a gold-color exterior trim along with a set of magnets. The box exhibits wear on the corners and edges, as well as loose velvet lining. Dimensions: (shipping box) 11" x 9" x 2.5" (28 cm x 23 cm x 6.5 cm)
Additional Provenance: A Certificate of Authenticity from Twentieth Century Fox with a printed signature from J. Peterman of The J. Peterman Company.
Estimate: $1,000 - 2,000
