QEII - The four aquamarine and diamond scroll ornaments - more information Posted by Franck on January 29, 2021, 8:11 pm Dear all, we all know that QEII was offered an aqumarine tiara or ornaments in 1968 from Brazil. More information was given on Instagram "British Royal Jewels" : From "Fabiana_3 : Just a small correction, it was the Brazilian Presidente Costa e Silva in 1968 who gave the gift to the Queen. At that time, some people said that the aquamarines came from a mine in Sao Paulo, but in fact they were from Espirito Santo, another Brazilian state. In fact, all the stones came from the same place, Pedra da Onça, in Itarana in the central mountain region of Espirito Santo.". I have found a photo of QEII given a collar from the president. https://rainhastragicas.com/2013/06/16/1968-a-rainha-elizabeth-ii-visita-o-brasil/ Maybe QEII has also given the ornament at this event.
