    I'm hoping someone can correct me but I've never been able to find pictures of anyone wearing this pearl and diamond brooch prior to QEII. I'd love to know where it appeared from. It is one of her top 10 and is worn several times a year...

    : I guess what I am asking for is what you
    : call all these jewel pieces in my pictures
    : (as in "The Queen Victoria Bar
    : Brooch" or "The King William IV
    : Brooch," for example).

    : Is this necklace changeable with either
    : sapphires or rubies? I think she has a
    : similar necklace with ruby tassels. Now this
    : one has sapphire tassels. Also, I don't
    : think I ever see her wearing that pair of
    : earrings with that shape and also her
    : bracelet.

    : I notice Princess Margaret had this
    : four-strand-pearl choker with this clear
    : central stone. I don't think she wore that
    : too often, did she?
