    No I'm afraid not, if I remembered any more I would have posted it. Just that it was many years ago.

    : In one of the old programmes about QEII (and
    : her jewels) we have seen a member of staff
    : in her 'vault' with a display storage
    : cabinet for her jewels. It has shelves that
    : are vertically stacked and rotate for
    : access.
    : Also there was some sort of catalogue or
    : list of the jewels.
    :
    : I remember seeing this but not much more.
    : So from this it suggests there are
    : lists/catalogues of the Royal jewels. I
    : think I have also seen that they record what
    : she has worn and when.

    : I think the Duchess of Cornwall wears a lot
    : of the family jewels. Is it possible the
    : Duchess of Cambridge does not feel qualified
    : or welcome to use more and more of the
    : jewels? I think the jewels of Sweden and
    : Netherlands royal families are shared except
    : for Sweden's queen and her special tiaras.
    : I long to see Kate wear Queen Mary's pearl
    : tiara and any other items the Queen may like
    : to share without offending the Duchess of
    : Cornwall.
    :
    :
    : And while I think about it, does the Queen
    : ever say "come by and let's look at
    : what we have in the vault"? Do they
    : have a catalog of the jewelry the ladies can
    : scan and pick items? It would make it a lot
    : easier. Is it a matter of sending an
    : Equerry to pick up the selected items then
    : they must be returned and checked for
    : missing stones etc? Now that I think of it,
    : seems like a LOT of work maybe that is why
    : Kate is so sparing. I think she dresses
    : suitable for her age. And Camilla should
    : have more access to important pieces.
    :
    : Good grief. I have a lot of questions. Is
    : there a pecking order? Do they have a list
    : of jewelry available for each royal lady?
    : As in specific that they are allowed to use?

    : Sophie wore the same necklace Diana wore
    : that belongs to the Queen.
