Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World

Queen Victoria added a whole treasure trove of important jewels to the royal vaults during her reign, including a magnificent pair of earrings set with diamonds and pearl drops.

The grand finale of the Platinum Jubilee celebrations in London took place today, with royals joining in the Big Jubilee Lunches and attending the Platinum Jubilee Pageant. And we had a surprise balcony appearance from the Queen as a wonderful coda to the festivities, too!

Saturday’s Platinum Jubilee festivities culminated in a spectacular royal party at the palace, full of musical tributes—and even a surprise appearance from the Queen herself!

While the Queen’s ongoing mobility issues have meant that she won’t be appearing at any of today’s Platinum Jubilee events, the rest of the royal family was out and about in public, attending the Epsom Derby and making special national visits.

On Friday morning, the British royal family gathered for a national service of thanksgiving for the Queen’s reign at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, followed by a luncheon at the Guildhall.
