Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Our second post on the jewels worn for the Duke of Edinburgh’s memorial service, held today at Westminster Abbey in London, covers the pieces worn by foreign royals and family members in attendance. (If you missed our first post, on the British royal jewels worn to the service, you can find it here!)
Today, the British royal family gathered with royal relatives and guests from across the world to celebrate the life of the late Duke of Edinburgh at Westminster Abbey. We’re going to devote a pair of posts to the jewels worn at today’s thanksgiving service, starting with the jewels worn by the British royals for the event.
This week marks the 20th anniversary of the death of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, one of the most influential British royal figures of the last century. To celebrate her life, we’re spending this week exploring her bejeweled legacy. Today, we’re beginning with the tiaras from her collection currently being worn by royal ladies today.
