I just saw some pics of the family cortege last tuesday. Both princess Margriet of the Netherlands and her niece princess Maria Carolina de Bourbon de Parme were wearing emerald earrings. So far i know there are two sets: One is made for Queen Juliana who dismantled two of the prongs from the emerald parure tiara to make these earrings. I think Princess Margriet was wearing these pieces. The second are the square emerald earrings of princess Beatrix. Princess Maria Carolina is wearing a third set, also with dropshaped emerald pendants but the top is different. Could they be her own pieces?
