Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
The Academy Awards always bring us some interesting jewelry moments, and this year, I’ll be highlighting a few of them over the next days and weeks. First up: a spectacular Cartier necklace, with echoes of a semi-royal tiara, on the actress Elle Fanning.
On Friday, the King of Denmark hosted the first arts and culture banquet of his reign, and both Queen Mary and Queen Margrethe sparkled in tiaras and gala jewels for the occasion.
In today’s article at Hidden Gems, I’m continuing the tale of the Connaught family’s tour of the Mediterranean in 1905. In this week’s installment, Princess Margaret finally meets her husband-to-be, Prince Gustaf, in Cairo. As bonus reading today, I’ve got a peek at some of the grand tiaras that were being worn at the royal court of Gustaf’s grandfather, King Oscar II, in 1905, including jewels that belonged to Queen Sofia and Crown Princess Victoria.
