The Princess of Wales recently wore a necklace made of gold links with a pendant charm. Many felt it was a surprising choice, given her usual style, but she has worn a similar piece in the past: a charm bracelet given to her by Queen Camilla.

Queen Camilla made a pair of appearances over the past few days, dazzling in diamonds and pearls by wearing in classic jewels from her personal collection.

Queen Camilla already had an impressive collection of jewels at her disposal before her husband’s accession, and though that collection will surely grow in the coming years and months, I expect we’ll continue to see her use a favorite set of jewels: her numerous pieces from Van Cleef & Arpels.

There’s been all kinds of talk about the crown that Queen Camilla will wear for the May 2023 coronation—I offered my views on the subject earlier here—but today, let’s take a closer look at the jewelry that King Charles III will wear during the ceremony.

We’ve got another Princess of Wales necklace dispatch this afternoon, featuring a gold and lapis lazuli piece that has become one of her favorite jewels in recent years.
