Exciting new find. Bridesmaid brooch from wedding of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother
Posted by Beth on April 26, 2023, 11:56 am
Today is the Centenary of the wedding of George VI & Queen Elizabeth.
During the week I have been doing a series of post about gifts of jewellery given to the Queen Mother for her wedding on 26 April 1923. They were a frame for an exciting new discovery by @thebeaumondecollection.
This morning (Australian time) @thebeaumondecollection released the photos.
Another is due tomorrow.
Here is the link to the post. I hope everyone enjoys it.
Apologies. Instagram is giving me grief at present. As soon as I can do a link I'll post it
It is so rare for us to see anything totally new, that this find is a treat & a treasure.
To put this find into perspective -- there were no photos or sketches of the brooch in the press in 1923.
