A gold and diamond-encrusted ring in the shape of a belt buckle is one of hundreds of pieces of Rita Crundwell’s jewelry that soon could be yours.
The U.S. Marshals Service will hold a live auction Feb. 23 at the Fort Worth Convention Center in Fort Worth, Texas, to sell 228 pieces that belonged to the ousted Dixon comptroller.
Like her furnishings, many pieces have a western or horsey theme. The auction will begin at 10 a.m. and end when the last item is sold. A preview will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Feb. 22. Admission to both is free.
If you can’t make the trek, you still can bid during a live simulcast at www.txauction.com, the website for Gaston & Sheehan Auctioneers.
