Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Today marks the anniversary of the passing of a royal woman who never became a queen but still left an indelible mark on her family’s legacy. Princess Sibylla, the mother of the present King of Sweden, was an important part of keeping her family together after tragedy, moving forward through tradition wearing a treasured royal jewel: the Connaught Diamond Tiara.
Last week, a little piece of royal history was sold at auction in England: a sapphire and emerald ring once owned by Princess Margaret that also apparently had ties to another royal relative, the Marquess of Cambridge.
We were treated to a lovely royal jewelry surprise from Spain today: an appearance by the family’s treasured heirloom diamonds in a fabulous new portrait of Queen Letizia.
