And the big jewelry event:





Queen Mary's True Lover's Knot Brooch
Queen Mary's Link Bracelet
Queen Mary's Girls of Great Britain & Ireland Tiara

I'm sure someone else knows the name of the necklace and earrings.

I cannot see some of the getty and corbis ones Grandduchessella posts either,  I think they need to be saved to photobucket first.

With regards to the snake necklace, which I suppose Camilla is indeed wearing in that newspaper photo (unless she wore that pink dress three different times  ) well I like the serpent necklace a lot. I love snake jewelry, but I hate snakes.

the necklace is the KING GEORGE VI FESTOON NECKLACE, given to HM by her father in 1947

It is a lovely piece.

I can see them. 

Photobucket isn't working for me right now--it keeps sending me back to my log-in.

Alexander--thanks for the necklace ID. I thought it might be that piece (I was looking through Fields's book) but it looked like it hung slightly differently than it showed in the book photo.

I can see the photos.  Is the necklace the Queen is wearing the one that was cut from five 'strands' to three??

No...That was the "Greville necklace" from the Queen Mum. Don't know if the Queen or Charles has it...?

Here's what Fields says about the George VI necklace. In 1947 GVI wanted to make some jewellery from 239 large diamond collets that he had inherited. In 1950 105 were set in this 3 row necklace.

I can see all of the corbis pictures I think, and some of the getty ones. It doesn't matter because I can look them up myself.

[Eddie_uk]

I can't see the photos either. Just comes up with an X, would it be possible to post the links of the jewellery pictures please

[grandduchessella]

I can see them fine.  Anyway, if you use the right click and choose 'properties' you can get the link or use the quote button and it will bring it up.

What about the earrings she wore to the White House state banquet? They look familiar...
