I thank you so much for your post ! Indeed QEQM wore QA's emerald earrings !
I am very eager to see the Duchess of Cornwall or the Duchess of Cambridge wearing the emerald greville necklace (or the other one we have never seen).
It would be also a dream to see the Duchess of Cornwall wearing the emerald greville tiara with the necklace ! a stunning parure !

For a government reception at Lancaster House for the Italian state visit in May 1958 Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother wore Queen Alexandra's emerald earrings with the Greville emerald necklace, the Greville tiara and Queen Alexandra's emerald bracelet.
Detail of the earrings.
They have the same shape as the earrings worn by the Duchess of Cornwall
The earrings we refer to as the Greville emerald earrings hang lower and are a different shape.
Below is a comparison of the earrings. The cabochons on the left are Queen Alexandra's, while the earrings on the right are the faceted stones we refer to as the Greville earrings.
