I totalt agree, I love the tone they used. They really showered and talked about the historic value, grace and the respect of the jewels. It really feels genuine and real.
Was very impressed by the simple presentation of such beauty and history. It didn't matter that I could not understand the language just showing one how these jewels are stored was exemplary. Connecting with the public in such a way will allow for the continued support for the monarchy.

Started to watch will finish it later. Even though I cannot understand the language the video gives you a better close up and appreciation of the pieces which are truly beautiful especially the Braganza tiara.
Thanks,
Dave.
Wonderful! Wonderful! -- even though I cannot understand Swedish! If I could watch it in Australia, I hope others in different parts of the world can also.
Now could I impose on those who understand Swedish to tell us all the interesting facts, please?
I was fascinated by the information in English that the sapphires had originally been given to Augusta, the wife of Napoleon's step-son in 1811. What excitement the historian must have felt when she found the letter!
One of the things which caught my attention was how the Braganza tiara moves. In a previous program Queen Silvia mentioned that. Seeing how it does move was very interesting.
Thank you Benny for the link!
