As we approach tomorrow’s first anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s passing, let’s continue our look at her royal sapphires with a set given to her in the Middle East in the 1970s.

On Saturday, the British royals headed to the Princess Royal and Duke of Fife Memorial Park for their annual appearance at the rollicking Braemar Gathering.

Queen Elizabeth II’s jewelry box was brimming with bejeweled gifts from her loved ones. Among the most sentimental jewels, though, were the sapphires given to her by her beloved father as a wedding present.
