Re: Diplomatic Gala in Amsterdam Posted by Beth on April 10, 2019, 5:42 pm, in reply to "Diplomatic Gala in Amsterdam" Great to see all these jewels again. Thank you The Royal Watcher. I had hoped for a closer view of the brooch so that we could see the pink diamonds more clearly, but alas! I wonder if this generation of royal ladies will wear the brooch with the longer tassels? Or if they will keep to hanging the pearls directly below the bow?

So good to see that while corsages/stomachers are languishing in other Royal vaults Queen Max shows how they can be worn nowadays. Here's a picture from another event showing the pink diamonds clearly

Re: Diplomatic Gala in Amsterdam Queen's Brooch Posted by OmerH on April 12, 2019, 11:19 am, in reply to "Re: Diplomatic Gala in Amsterdam Queen's Brooch" I'd say its the same brooch. Although the pic is poor quality you can see the pearls hanging.

Re: Diplomatic Gala in Amsterdam Queen's Brooch Posted by Mike on April 14, 2019, 6:45 pm, in reply to "Re: Diplomatic Gala in Amsterdam Queen's Brooch" I thought Her Majesty wore the brooch very well and was very elegant! I would love to see what Maxima would so if she had full access to the vaults at Buckingham Palace! Previous Message Great photo OmerH!
