History of Famous Jewels and Collections: Re: QEQM's large diamond floral spray brooch. Maridje's photo Edited

Edit: Obviously I was completely wrong. This is not a Greville piece. It is the Ark Royal brooch see http://mb.boardhost.com/historyroyaljewels/msg/1550203385.html

Maridje has again treated us to some wonderful photos from her amazing archive. Thank you so much Maridje!

These photos show QEQM wearing the second diamond floral brooch, which she had been wearing since at least 1948 and perhaps 1946.

I think that it, along with the larger diamond floral brooch, probably came from Mrs Greville.
