British Royals at Easter Service Posted by Isabelle D on April 22, 2019, 4:53 pm Easter Mattins Service at St George's Chapel on April 21, 2019 in Windsor, England. It was also the queen's 93rd birthday.

Re: British Royals at Easter Service Posted by Beth on April 22, 2019, 6:46 pm, in reply to "British Royals at Easter Service" Great photos! Thank you Isabelle D! I think that this is the first time that I have been able to see the details of the Duchess of Cambridge's "acorn" brooch. I keep wondering if it was a gift from a relative to match the wedding earrings. Is this the first time we have seen the earrings since the wedding? Does anyone know?

Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne Posted by Beth on April 22, 2019, 6:48 pm, in reply to "Re: British Royals at Easter Service" Does anyone know if the brooch the Princess Royal wore is the one made from the coloured diamonds she was given many years ago?

Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne Posted by Dave on April 22, 2019, 8:42 pm, in reply to "Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne" Hi Beth, could you touch a little more on the jewels gifted to Princess Ann some years ago with any available picture to boot, thank you. I know nothing of this brooch you speak nor can see it clearly. Regards, Dave.

Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne Posted by Beth on April 23, 2019, 6:52 am, in reply to "Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne" LauraM identified the brooch made from some coloured diamonds given to Princess Anne by De Beers in 1971 (information from Leslie Field).

Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne Posted by Dave on April 23, 2019, 7:15 am, in reply to "Re: British Royals at Easter Service. Princess Anne" Thanks Beth. The Princess Royal's jewels are sedate but yet extremely impressive. Do you know anything of the outstanding pearl earrings in the second picture? Regards, Dave.

Re: British Royals at Easter Service Posted by OmerH on April 22, 2019, 6:53 pm, in reply to "Re: British Royals at Easter Service" Only the second time since the wedding. She wore them for Garter Ceremony a couple of years ago.

Re: British Royals at Easter Service Posted by Beth on April 22, 2019, 7:07 pm, in reply to "Re: British Royals at Easter Service" Thanks OmerH. I had definitely missed that. I need to venture into the present occasionally instead of sauntering in the past! Previous Message Only the second time since the wedding. She wore them for Garter Ceremony a couple of years ago.
