The $19,000 aquamarine ring surrounded by Taylor’s iconic emblem, snakes, was shown all around the town as Zarin flaunted her flailing finger adorned with her new treasure. One might ask, how did a housewife land such a precious gift from the epitome of class, diamonds, and fierce fashion. Well, according to Zarin, the ring was a gift purchased from Christie’s by Jill Zarin’s husband, Bobby Zarin, owner of Zarin Fabrics.
