Queen Wilhelmina. Wedding gift
Posted by Beth on February 17, 2020, 5:47 am
Some of the UK media reporting on the wedding of Queen Wilhelmina noted that Queen Emma gave her daughter 3 pieces of jewellery as a gift. They were a diamond corsage ornament, a diamond bracelet with a miniature of Queen Emma (worn on her wedding day) and a diamond and ruby collar.
Does anyone know what the diamond and ruby collar was? (I haven't seen any sketches or more detailed descriptions).
Could it have been the collar/necklace from the Mellerio ruby parure which Queen Emma received in 1889?
