Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
This weekend, the British royals celebrated the sport of rugby, with Princess Anne and Princess Catherine sparkling in royal jewels for a Windsor Castle podcast recording and a World Cup match in France.
Today, Queen Paola of Belgium celebrates her 86th birthday. In her honor, we’re rewinding the clock two decades to look at one of her glamorous gala tiara appearances.
Later this month, Bonhams is auctioning a gorgeous, convertible diamond necklace inspired by a royal jewel that was worn by the wife of a French royal pretender.
Yesterday, we surveyed the twelve tiaras that Queen Elizabeth II was photographed wearing during her reign. But her collection included far more tiaras than that—including numerous examples that she owned but never wore in public.
