The Cousins did wear some jewellery: some brooches and earrings mostly.
Marilene wore a floral motif brooch from the ON collection on her waste on April 30th during the investiture ceremony.
I have not seen pictures with ON pieces on Annette or Anita. Aimee borrowed the large round citrine brooch and dress from Maxima.
Margarita wore her mother's diamond and ruby earrings that she herself used to combine with the Peacock Tail Parure. I believe Margarita owns the earrings now. At least she's the only one who wears them.
Carolina wore an intricate diamond brooch. It once belonged to Queen Juliana but I believe it is owned by Princess Irene. She also wore a diamond riviere and diamond earrings. Interestingly enough it is Carolina who has always been the one wearing the most or at least prominent O-N jewels.
Annemarie wore the large brooch from the Peacock Tail Parure. The brooch and tiara are owned by the O-N Foundation, not Irene. As spouse of the Head of the House of BP she's allowed more choice it seems.
By the way I really liked the antique coral bead necklace and bracelet she wore during the investiture in the church. Provenance unknown to me. Didn't care much for her outfit but the jewels were nice.
