    Could be a Gulf gift? Archived Message

    The fact that that particular emerald set was chosen to be worn in Kuwait, could it indicate the provenance from that country? Maybe received during a Kuwait visit to Sweden or a previous Swedish visit to Kuwait.

    Just a guess.

    : I’d say that this emerald set will work rather

    : The set (her 4th contemporary one in
    : emeralds) is something of a curiosity as it
    : was only seen once in public in 2008. As
    : Queen Silvia has never worn jewelry on loan,
    : it would be far-fetched to think that she
    : did so on this occasion, but only time will
    : tell if we see it again and can thereby
    : determine that it’s actually hers.
    : I quite like this modern variation

    : All pieces of the set were worn - matching
