Yes, Henri M we have to wait as long Queen Fabiola is still alive. When she was Queen Consort she wore Emeralds once in Persepolis and never wore them because Princes Lilian was still alive. Now she is not Queen Consort anymore wearing no diamonds except for some State Visit (King of Spain). She will never give any jewel to Queen Paola because their relationship is not that good, but she gave or loaned a great brooch to Princess Mathilde. What is sure is that we never saw jewels on Princess Lea or Princess ESmeralda So we are waiting.... --Previous Message-- : That embargo was just a product of my : imagination.
