I'd love to see their British counterparts wear more of the many collier diamond necklaces left back by Queen Mary though.
The Diamond and pearl tiara of the late Danish Queen that she wore outside Denmark looks similar to the one gifted to her daughter Queen Alexandra then the PoW by her husband Edward. I wonder if the Diamond and Pearl tiara is still with the Danish monarchy?
Regards,
Dave.
Over the past few days, I’ve been doing extensive research on this topic for my article on the Jewels that will pass to the soon-to-be Queen Mary , and have come up with the list of Jewels:
The Danish Crown Jewels:
Danish Emerald Parure
Crown Diamond Parure
Crown Pearl and Ruby Parure
Rose-cut Diamond Parure
The Løsørefideikommis:
Pearl Poiré Tiara and Khedive of Egypt Parure
Floral Aigrette Tiara
Antique Diamond Parure with Floral Bracelet Choker and Queen Josefina’s Diamond Brooches
Royal Portrait Order
More details on each jewel and its use can be found HERE .
A huge thanks to Kasper, JR, and RDavid for their help in looking through the images of recent exhibitions, books and documentaries for concrete evidence regarding the status of each jewel.
