Take a leaf out of the great screen romances of all time this Valentine's Day to set the tone for your own great love affair... Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton had a tumultuous lifelong connection, which led to some of the most impressive and famous jewellery purchases in history.

After their first initial meeting on the set of Cleopatra, Taylor says she held a cup of coffee to the hung-over Burton's lips "Our eyes locked and he drank the whole cup and we just kept looking at each other".

And while your great romance may be a tad more humble, there's no better time spent than alone with a great love by a roaring fire with a glass of red wine, and a well-placed jewellery gift of your own!
