Thanks for the new thread @Maireas.💐
I’d like to see some relatively unseen gems at the Coronation. Maybe these ? Alexandra’s fringe, Vladimir with emeralds, I’m fed up of pearls, and the Cambridge sapphire parure? Definitely the Girls of GB and I need an appearance.

Oh, hello.
This looks like a good auction.
Loving the look of some of this bling.
Newbies - some options here!
The first ruby, pearl and diamond brooch is beautiful!

The Kents sold the Cambridge sapphire tiara I’m afraid, gluenotsoup. 😪
They kept the rest of the parure and made a smaller tiara from elements from the necklace, though - see a good history of it here.

I thought you might like to see this link to Kensington Palace "The Jewel Room"
Stonking emeralds. 😻
I think Camilla and the tiara girls should all head over to the tiara room with some bottles of fizz, some nibbles, brush, comb, elastic bands to tie hair up, lock, post guards on the doors and have a try on session. That would be fun

That's interesting, @Serenster , thank you.
Isn't Katharine Kent beautiful.
Yes, it's a lovely picture of her. It occurs to me that the Duke of Kent and Prince Michael must have similar taste in women as the Duchess and Princess Michael don't look that dissimilar.
Their resemblance stops at their looks, obviously!!
