    : It's an interesting piece which we have seen
    : only once or twice since then. The Queen was
    : wearing several diamond and greyish pearl
    : jewels that day which was in celebration of
    : her 40th anniversary of her ascencion to the
    : throne in 1898. She was Queen since 1890
    : after her father had passed but only
    : invested in 1898. Her mother Queen Emma had
    : acted as Regent.
