Hello Valeria,

the thread indicated is about the Regente.
The PeLLegrina is not the PeRegrina which is said to mean “The Pilgrim"
and is a large pear-shaped white pearl of 203.84 grains The pearl was purchased in 1969 for $37,000 by actor Richard Burton for his wife, Elizabeth Taylor, who still owns it.

While the PeLLegrina is 111.5 grains in weight, perfectly spherical

But none picture can be found

I just applied to Christies who sold it in 1987

Meanwhile if someone knows more, I am still interested

Thanks in adavannce
