According to Danish magazine Billed Bladet, a new book (in Danish) on emeralds contains an interview with the Queen on her use of the Emerald Parure from the Danish Crown Jewels.
The author of the book is Nina Hald, who also wrote the book on changes made to Crown Princess Mary’s ruby parure. Previouly Nina Hald has also published books on respectively diamonds and pearls.
I own the book on the ruby set, and it definitely has some beautiful photos as well as interesting facts. However, one of the first chapters is more of a “poetic” tribute to rubies – and Nina Hald really isn’t poetic
I look forward to the new book on emeralds, to be published in November.
