QEII. Turquoise demi parure Posted by Beth on May 24, 2019, 3:46 pm This is the necklace and earrings I referred to below Dave. I that that it was given to QEII by King Hussein of Jordan. I am sure that others will know more and have better photos. HM has not worn it often.

Can you or anyone say what are the other stones noted to be intertwined with the turquoise? Regards, Dave. Previous Message I that that it was given to QEII by King Hussein of Jordan.

Re: QEII. Turquoise demi parure Posted by Dave on May 24, 2019, 9:40 pm, in reply to "QEII. Turquoise demi parure" Ahhh yes Beth thank you. I had totally forgot about this set although I did notice it before, but the Queen so much sticks to her Pearls and Diamonds and dawns Ruby and Sapphire at times I did not remember this turquoise set. Do you or others think that maybe HM has some other grander turquoise sets? Regards, Dave. Previous Message This is the necklace and earrings I referred to below Dave.

Dave, I personally don't think that QEII has another turquoise parure. All of the parures belonging to previous Queens have been accounted for and are now in other collections. But, of course, none of us knows what HM might have in her collection. What do others think? Might we get a surprise in the future?
