CAIRO, March 4 (UPI) -- A nine-row pearl necklace which once belonged to the late Egyptian singer Umm Kulthum reportedly is to be auctioned off in Dubai next month.

SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

The necklace, which was a gift to Kulthum from the United Arab Emirates' late ruler Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan al-Nahayan, is said to have been made around 1880, al-Arabiya reported Tuesday.

It could sell for close to $120,000 when it hits the auction block as part of the Contemporary Jewels and Watches sale in Dubai April 29, the report said.
