Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World

Before we fully move on from the jewels of last week’s Belgian state visit to Norway, let’s have a look at two sparkling sapphire appearances from Queen Mathilde during days two and three of the trip.

This week, the King and Queen of the Belgians headed to Oslo for a state visit with their Norwegian counterparts, and the banquet held on the first evening brought out a pair of special royal tiaras.

On Tuesday, members of the extended Belgian royal family gathered in Brussels to remember their departed loved ones, and Queen Mathilde appropriately wore a brooch that belonged to the late Queen Fabiola for the occasion.

New year receptions have also been taking place in Brussels, and this week we saw sapphires, diamonds, and pearls sparkling on Belgium’s queen and crown princess at a palace reception for European dignitaries.
