Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World

There was major sparkle for the Qatari state banquet at Buckingham Palace tonight, thanks to four spectacular royal tiaras—including a debut for Queen Camilla!—and even more heirloom royal jewels.

The Qatari state visit to Britain has officially begun, with the Princess of Wales paying a jewelry tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II as she helped to welcome the royal couple to London.

Tonight, King Charles III and Queen Camilla will host a sparkling state banquet at Buckingham Palace for the Emir of Qatar. As we anticipate the gala jewelry we’ll see at the event, I think it’s fair to say that we might get a glimpse of one of the suites presented to the late Queen by one of the previous Qatari rulers.

We’ve been laser-focused here lately on the jewels of Royal June in Britain, but in the meantime, the other monarchies of the world have been soldiering on with their usual engagements as well. Let’s play a little catch-up, starting today with jewels worn in the Netherlands for a visit from the Emir of Qatar.
