These are two diferent aquamarine sets, both very beautiful. I also never heard of Dona Teresa lefting hers to her nephew the Duke of Braganza, she has daughters and grandaughters who can wear it beautifully . I actually never knew what wedding gift (if any) did Ps Isabel (Countess of Paris) received from any brazilian individuals or authorities.
I have some nice pics I want to share with you all related to the Braganza aquamarines (and all the remaing jewels), but since these threads are being organized and presented by jewel topics, will you forgive me if I wait until we get to those specif topics? I am adding a bit of suspense here . I just think it would be better this way, since there are still many jewels for us to discuss and this thread would become much too long!
