Here’s a slightly better look at the brooch. The jewel appears to be set with blue gemstones, perhaps pale sapphires?

The first day of the trip included a stop at Schloss Friedenstein. The eighteenth-century palace was built by Duke Ernst I of Saxe-Gotha, one of Philippe’s ancestors. The palace was later a secondary residence for the Dukes of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.

Philippe’s great-great-great-grandfather was King Leopold I of Belgium, who was Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha before he accepted the offer to become Belgium’s first monarch. (Some of you may know him better as Uncle Leopold to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.) Material related to Leopold was put on display at Schloss Friedenstein for the Belgian royal visit.
