Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Last week, British royals flocked to Gloucestershire for the annual Cheltenham Festival. During her appearance at the races on Wednesday, Queen Camilla wore a pair of gorgeous pansy brooches that she’s treasured for decades.
On Monday, the Princess of Wales celebrated St. Patrick’s Day with the Irish Guards, handing out shamrocks while wearing a special gold and emerald brooch.

Today, I’ve got the interesting story behind this modern jewel.
