Netflix’s seductive and scandalous period drama Bridgerton has won over fans since its release on December 25.
But it is not just the action of tearing up the bodice that caught the attention of viewers, as many are also intrigued by the show’s extravagant fashion and jewelry.
Daily Mail Australia can reveal the estimated value of several jewelry items featured in the series, including the infamous diamond necklace given to Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) by Prince Friedrich (Freddie Stroma).
