The life jacket belonged to Laura Mabel Francatelli, who was traveling first class on the ship, which sank on its maiden voyage in 1912 after colliding with an iceberg.
The life jacket is reported to have been signed by her and other survivors of the same lifeboat.
According to the auction house Henry Aldridge and Son, it was sold for £670,000, equivalent to just over 8.3 million kronor. A seat cushion from one of the lifeboats was also sold for the equivalent of 4.8 million kronor to the owners of two different Titanic museums in the United States.
The record for a Titanic-related item sold, £1.56 million, was paid in 2024 for a gold watch given to the captain of a rescue ship by grateful survivors.
