Oh Blackadder you have made me laugh with your line that Prince Edward will get a toupee :lol:

It is sad to see significant pieces go, however to be practical these days there is not as much opportunity/occasion to wear such grand jewels, as there was 60 years ago, and therefore no need to own so many. There is also death duty/tax to be paid in the UK, which is a substantial tax, and as...

Lovely to see the Georg Jensen grape necklace and earrings on Crown Princess Mary at the Opera for the IOC, it is a beautiful set

I have to agree with you jcbcode, the original was lovely, the remodelled version, not so classic

Hi Shari-aree IMO means in my opinion - you will get used to the acronyms :flowers: I'm an Aussie too - from Melbourne.

Last night channel 9 aired the program "A Year with the Royal Family" or something like that. Princess Anne was seen in the background wearing the beautiful festoon tiara whilst attending the banquet held for the State Visit from Ghana. :flowers: Couldn't make out the other jewels she was...

The Crown Princess looks stunning, however the cape reminds me of a bat! Mary does look so happy/content at the moment - she is glowing.

I really like the stones, beautiful colours and gorgeous together. The setting is not my preference, the stones are beautiful. :flowers: Congratulations to the couple.

They work for me, I could do with a pink sapphire, and a few more diamonds. Hopefully Mary got a nice heritage piece out of Queen Margrethe's vault as well.

I think Alexandra or Alice for a girl, Philip definitely for a boy. I don't think they will use Elizabeth or Mary again. Hopefully Sophie will get something sparkly out of the Queen Mum's jewel box as a new baby gift. Congratulations to the Wessex family, hopefully everything goes smoothly...

I think it might be Louise also. Princess Louise Margrethe Henrietta Elizabeth of Denmark. Oh well only a week and a half until we find out.:flowers:

Favourites: 1. Princess Anita of Netherlands 2. Crown Princess Mette-Marit 3. Princess Grace of Monaco 4. Crown Princess Mary of Denmark

For a girl: Alexandrine Ingrid Margrethe Henrietta I think it's a girl, so not even thinking about a boy's name.:flowers:

I couldn't agree more, and I like it. It is a very reflective and it captures Mary very well. I do like the purple hat. First we read that Mary does nothing with her hair, then we read the complaints when she does do something with it, like wear a hat/headband whatever... Nice to see some...

The ring Mary is wearing looks like an amethyst, maybe a birthday present, as her birthstone (February) is amethyst. She wore a different amethyst ring in Germany, the day she wore the deep khaki green suit (the second day of their trip). Mary also seemed to be wearing new aquamarine earrings...

Mary has some new jewels on her trip to Germany. I noticed she has a couple of new rings, one in yellow gold, and a large amethyst, plus necklace and earrings at the evening function. Can't see the necklace and earrings at the evening function clearly. Maybe some birthday pressies from Fred?
