Michael Jackson
The Swarovski Black Diamond Glove by Arfaq
Michael Jacksons Black Swarovski Glove designed and created by Arfaq is to be auctioned in China.
A black Swarovski glove worn by the late King of Pop Michael Jackson is set to go under the hammer as part of a pop culture auction in China to be held later this year.
In 1994, Arfaq made the Black Swarovski diamond glove for Michael Jackson known as "Healing Hands", which was worn by Michael Jackson on the HIstory Tour. Handmade with 18,443 diamond stones imported from Austria, from the legendary Swarovski Crystal House, the specially formulated adhesive allows total control and movement.
Five 9ct Egyptian gold buckles fasten the glove in place, each buckle is extremely light, thus preventing distortion of the finished glove.
His look inspired this Antonio Berardi catwalk style. Today, sequins work for day and evening wear.
The glove, which the "Thriller" hitmaker wore during his promotional tour for the 1995 album "HIStory: Past, Present and Future", is expected to fetch $50,000.
It will be auctioned along with other Jackson memorabilia including stage costumes, original paintings and handwritten notes by the singer himself, reports contactmusic.com.
Some items of pop legend Madonna, late singer Elvis Presley, actress Marilyn Monroe and the late Princess of Wales Diana will also be up for sale.
A burgundy velvet dress worn by Diana in a 1989 event at the French Embassy is expected to rake in between $80,000 and $100,000. The items will go on sale October.
