--Previous Message-- : When the Queen wore the clips at the United : Nations, I saw her on television. The : sparkle of the clips, which she wore that : day, is astonishing, because the aquamarines : are lined with diamonds.
I recall seeing footage of the Queen arriving at Andrews Air Force Base during the 2007 US visit. The Cullinan V brooch reflected the setting sun so beautifully and provided a dazzling show as HM descended the plane's stairs. I'm so used to staring at a computer screen and seeing these pieces in still photos and it's great to occassionaly see them as they were meant to be - in motion.
