Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Today at Hidden Gems, I’m delving into yet another recently unsealed royal will. As we discuss the life and legacy of Grand Duchess Augusta of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, here’s a roundup of articles on her jewelry from our archives.
Royals around the world have a special place in their heart for sapphires, the spectacular birthstone of September babies. In Britain, one of the gemstone’s biggest fan is the Princess of Wales, who has several pieces set with sapphires in her collection–and may have even more waiting in the wings!
We discussed the new eternity band worn by the Princess of Wales in place of her usual engagement ring in an article earlier this week, and I thought I’d pop back in here to drop a link to another conversation I had with People about the topic.
