Dawn - you actually have a different book entitled The Jewels of Queen Elizbeth II: Her Personal Collection, 1992, which is a softback with chapters organised according to pieces of jewellery - tiaras, earrings, necklaces, etc.
The 1987 and 1997 editions are hardbacks of The Queen's Jewels: The Personal Collection of Elizabeth II with chapters organised according to types of gems - amethysts, aquamarines, coral, etc.
Dawn - your page number does have the pic matching the hardback page number.
I think there is another hardback edition.
--Previous Message-- : I have the same book by the same author but it : is published in 1992, so your description on : page 109 would not be in my book. However, I : would assume you may mean the bracelets : shown on Queen Mary in a photo on page 112 : (under the title of "Queen Mary's : Bracelet") or on pages 86 and 81 with : pictures of Queen Mary wearing her : bracelets. In fact, there are some other : such pictures on some other pages, too! : : Thanks for your answer, Jinja. : : --Previous Message-- : See Field (1987), page 109, for a clear : photo : from the same sitting as Martina's postcard : photo. One of the bracelets (Queen Mary's : right wrist) has five rows of pearls and a : diamond center. There is also a photo of : the Queen wearing that bracelet. The other : bracelet (her left wrist), which looks wider : in the postcard photo and also has a wide : clasp, is not identified. On page 107, a : photo of Princess Anne shows a pearl : bracelet with a wide clasp and four rows of : pearls. There must be a few of these pearl : bracelets. : : The photo on page 109 also answers Martina's : original question about the tiara (no added : bling) and mine about the stomacher (Nellie : is right). : : :
