Brigitte Bardot’s personal items fetch nearly 11 million kronor at Paris auction

The items were sold for a total of almost 20 times their estimated value, the auction house Millon said, according to AFP.

A total of 285 items went under the hammer, including straw hats, sunglasses and furniture. Two of her guitars, estimated to be worth between 300 and 500 euros, sold for 8,600 and 11,900 euros respectively - that is, up to 135,000 kronor.

Bardot died in December at the age of 91. The proceeds will go to her animal welfare foundation and to her son.
