Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Happy Canada Day, magpies! We’re celebrating Canada’s national day with a look back at a glittering tiara appearance from one of its former heads of state, the late Queen Elizabeth II. In 1951, when she was still a princess, Elizabeth had a memorable night in sparkling diamonds at the Winnipeg Ballet.
Another glittering gala event on our catch-up list comes from Stockholm, where the Swedish royal family held a grand celebration in honor of the recent 80th birthday of Queen Silvia.
One more jewelry highlight moment from this week’s Japanese state visit to Britain: a special bejeweled brooch chosen by Queen Camilla to pay tribute to Empress Masako during the official farewell ceremony.
