I too would love to see some of these items worn -- so that we could get a modern photo!

Luckily, there are still different items for us to find and discuss.


A very interesting suggestion OmerH. It is definitely making me think, but some how I doubt if the brooch in QEQM's hat matches one of the emerald brooches worn on the necklace. The brooches on the necklace have always been worn in conjunction with emeralds, so I am fairly confident they have emeralds. QEQM never seems to have mixed colours in her jewellery (except for the Cartier bracelets) so I think that the hat brooch probably has a ruby -- but I could be very much mistaken. I often am!
