Queen Elizabeth II Brooch Posted by Crowne on June 24, 2022, 12:54 am Yesterday Queen Elizabeth II met with the Governor of New South Wales at Windsor Castle. Can anyone tell what brooch she wore as I can't work it out? Has anyone found a better photo?

Re: Queen Elizabeth II Brooch Posted by Bryce on June 24, 2022, 3:57 am, in reply to "Queen Elizabeth II Brooch" It appears to be a heavy sapphire and diamond brooch - not sure which one though. It looks odd because it is too heavy for the fabric and has "flopped" forward on it's pin.

Re: Queen Elizabeth II Brooch Posted by Bryce on July 20, 2022, 4:16 am, in reply to "Re: Queen Elizabeth II Brooch" To my eye, I am not sure that it is either the Cambridge Emerald or the brooch with Simon Armitage. It looks too small to be the Armitage one (which I think is an aquamarine)

It looks too small to be the Armitage one (which I think is an aquamarine) yes, you are right it is an aquamarine brooch or some other pale blue stone. It must have been the pattern on the dress that confused my eyes.
