Princess Michael of Kent Posted by Dave on April 6, 2021, 12:02 am I believe, I may have already touched on the jewels of Princess Michael, but I stumbled upon a photo with the Princess at a ball in the U.S and she was wearing what appeared to be a very grandiose and intricately designed diamond necklace. I cant find the picture at this time but they are some of the Princess's jewels that creates mystery in the sense that one can deduce that some of them could be costumed pieces. Some questions: Is the necklace in the below picture somehow a part of a set which matches the renowned Kent pearl and diamond tiara? https://i.pinimg.com/236x/bb/4a/cc/bb4acc4d34877334d4910e5fdfac0cbe.jpg What of the Indian style necklace and more importantly her bracelets, are they real? https://i.pinimg.com/564x/2d/66/1f/2d661f6799e4a8f31314cede2f4b2e6e.jpg The circled windowed earrings, I have seen the Princess with large white stones in place of the colored ones she has in this picture: https://i.pinimg.com/564x/89/48/7d/89487ddcc94abcd2d2d4f6aad8e6c9c4.jpg https://i.pinimg.com/564x/50/15/c9/5015c9582a9dfaba789862daa2ca1bf9.jpg I cant find the picture now, but the Princess has an outstanding and beautiful pair of large pear drop emerald earrings and at least two very outstanding emerald brooches, are their from her Mother in law's legacy? Regards, Dave.

The first necklace is mainly pearl creation, I found this picture (which I think is from Town & Country) where you can see it more clearly: I personally don't think it's part of a demi parure, just happens to go with the tiara. - No ideas about the Indian set - The lovely Saad at The Royal Watcher has a very helpful article about the Circle Earrings: https://royalwatcherblog.com/2020/01/15/kent-diamond-circle-earrings/ - The Emerald earrings, again no idea but if she does own them they are likely to have come from Princess Marina, all her important jewellery comes from her. The Emerald pendant comes from Princess Louise via Princess Marina:

Re: Princess Michael of Kent/ Bracelets Posted by Dave on April 7, 2021, 3:44 am, in reply to "Re: Princess Michael of Kent" Thanks Sam for taking an interest in the topic. Now you have mentioned Princess Marie Louise, maybe if you were to examine the bracelets Princess Michael is wearing with the Indian style necklace, they look like the ones noted on Princess Marie Louise in the below picture, you would fine that they look quite the same. https://i0.wp.com/www.unofficialroyalty.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/MarieLouise-Coronation-1953-NPG.jpg Regards, Dave.

Re: Princess Michael of Kent/ Grand necklace Posted by Dave on April 9, 2021, 4:11 pm, in reply to "Princess Michael of Kent" Ahhh, I've finally found the picture with PM wearing what looks like the very grand and intricate diamond necklace while at an event in Washington DC.

Princess Michael of Kent - Grand Necklace & Brooch Posted by Sam (The Beau Monde) on April 10, 2021, 11:21 pm, in reply to "Re: Princess Michael of Kent/ Grand necklace " Hi Dave I'm gonna be honest, I don't think it's very likely that the necklace is real and even if it is, Princess Michael wouldn't own it, it would probably just be on loan. The reason I say this is because a collar like that would be worth hundreds of thousands if not millions of pounds. As much as Prince Michael tries to preserve his royal legacy, he's not on the Civil List and I doubt he could afford to hang onto a piece like this. As for the Emerald brooch, I would guess that it was loan for that particular event. It looks like an Indian inspired piece and it was worn at a party to celebrate the publication of 'Made for Maharajas' by Dr Amin Jaffer.

Re: Princess Michael of Kent - Grand Necklace & Brooch Posted by Dave on April 11, 2021, 6:00 am, in reply to "Princess Michael of Kent - Grand Necklace & Brooch " Hmmmm, what you say makes sense Sam where the diamond necklace is concerned, but with regards to the lovely emerald brooch, I'm more inclined to believe it's a piece owned by the Kents as it seems to go with with her other emerald jewelry.
