The 1968 brooch Beth posted above is now owned by the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. It was a first anniversary present from Roman Polanski to his wife Sharon Tate only a few months before her tragic murder.

QEII also presented Betty Ford a brooch to mark the Bicentennial in 1976.

Mr Grima also designed a fringe tiara. Wish it could be seen on a Royal head.
