Re: Rachel Countess Dudley
These could be either sapphires or rubies worn by Rachel, Countess of Dudley, but I have never worked out what was in this set. (I have cuttings saying she had parures of both gemstones) At present Photobucket won't allow me to upload some images I have - I'll keep trying. She also had an impressive diamond tiara which she wore during her time as Vicereine of Ireland and as the wife of the Governor General of Australia.
