Duchess of Cambridge in Jamaica

Posted by Isabelle D User icon on March 24, 2022, 9:31 pm

I believe it's the first time Kate wears these earrings and bracelet, belonging to Queen Elizabeth II?

Is it true they are a gift from a UAE sheik?

These photos!!!! WOW

But I have to say this once and for all. The necklace REALLY bugs me. The asymmetry and the way the right facing side never seems to lay in a good way. It always looks off with too much slack on that side.

EMERALD TASSEL BOW PARURE

The Emerald Tassel Parure - a matching set of earrings, a necklace, bracelet and a ring was given to the Queen by a wealthy foreign monarch.

The donor is thought to be Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Of The United Arab Emirates, as pieces of the set were worn at a dinner he attended at Claridge’s Hotel in 1989.

This is royalty at its best. I am so profoundly happy and impressed with how the DoCam carries her self and takes her role so seriously. This is all about the decorum they as a couple exudes for me over the jewels.

In the face of unfair and inappropriate uncalled for protest. They are truly staying above the noise and I think it is really unreasonable to cast blame on persons who have no direct involvement in something they had no relation to.

The Duchess wears these jewels really well, she actually makes them look different. I had to make a double take to see if they were the same jewels HM has worn over the years. Her dress is really beautiful, nothing over power's the other they all compliment each other.

Regards,

Dave.

The Queen’s Hummingbird Brooch, a gift from Jamaica during her Golden Jubilee in 2002.

Has Elizabeth II ever worn this brooch?

After waiting 20 years for its debut, the brooch appears much larger than i expected.
The combination of materials is most interesting.
