Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
As a young woman, Princess Anne often accompanied her parents, the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, on foreign visits and tours. Today, we’ve got a look at a bejeweled ensemble worn by Anne during a visit to Austria in the 1960s.
Our week-long Sparkling Spotlight celebration of the jewels of Princess Irene of the Netherlands wraps up today with an appearance at a very important Dutch royal gala almost a decade ago.
Our focus on the jewels of Princess Irene of the Netherlands, who celebrates her birthday today, continues with a glittering ’60s gala appearance. Almost two years after her controversial royal wedding, Irene was back in the Netherlands for the celebrations of the wedding of Princess Beatrix and Prince Claus. She sparkled in diamonds and rubies for a pre-wedding ball in March 1966.
