Abu Dhabi brooch pictured in middle of group of 5

I do love the amethyst thistle brooch! And the Queen's brooches are what got me addicted to TRF in the first place!

I agree too! Not usually a fan of bug jewelry, but I like these.

Not to mention I wonder how much it would weigh?! It must be hard on the back!!:smile:

Just stunning! I think sapphires are my favorite stones, even though green is my favorite color. Do you know of books that give provenance of specific pieces of Romanov jewelry?

Papyrus Tiara I really like the Papyrus Tiara - wish we could see it more often!

Love the sapphires! she looks so tiny in that GINORMOUS necklace! do you think she was tiny or it was huge or both?!

Yes, Artemisia, congrats on your board - will be checking it out soon!

Can anyone tell me which tiara Princess Alexandra is wearing in the photo where you were discussing the copy of the Queen Victoria Golden jubilee necklace? Red dress, looking away to the her right... thanks!

I think it's nice for Christmas, and I was so glad to see the Queen out and about after being sick. At her age, I worry whenever I hear she's not feeling well.

albert brooch I wondered if it was the Albert or the Chrysanthemum - hard to tell from the photo I saw. Beautiful!

Queen Rania I have to say (after reading the whole thread) that I LOVE the Arabic Scroll tiara of Queen Rania! It may be my all time fave of all tiaras!

Anyone know these brooches? I can't really see them very well. It's from the Queen's visit to The Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment on Nov 27. Jewels Queen's Brooches / Nov 27 visit to The Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment - brooches? And might I add that I love her in purple!

The Queen's Diamonds book I splurged and bought it - let me know if anyone wants something looked up! It is the most beautiful book I've ever bought! Thick thick pages, amazing photos, and the best...it smells like a book store!!:flowers:

I have to say, Camilla looks fabulous in the Vladimir and Cambridge necklace! I think Kate should have the permanent loan of the Lover's Knot! LOVE this!! I can't wait until HRH Kate starts wearing tiaras often!

Does anyone know which tiara she wore at her wedding? It's very pretty.

thanks for the clarifications fellow posters!

I'm sorry if I confused you - I thought the John of Gaunt Brooch was called the Lancaster Brooch - but I've corrected it on my board. I had never seen the Mythical Sea Creature Brooch which I now think you are saying is really the Fishmongers Guild Badge. Is that correct? That's why I love...

You rock!! I like the sea creature - I wish we could see it better! I've made a decision today that I'm going to start wearing brooches :)

No, I meant the one she was wearing with a Kelly green suit - here is a link: Jewels Queen's Brooches / Lancaster Brooch I think the discussion ran along the lines of a feathers and a lion?

Artemisia, are you going to publish your database? I would buy a copy!!

Lancaster Brooch Did anyone ever find a good photo of the Lancaster Brooch? And any provenance?

I'd like to have just 3 laying around!

sea creature brooch I think we've decided the fish link I posted wasn't the sea creature. on a different note, does anyone have a good photo of the "foot long brooch"?
