Dear Karen that is a Diamond brooch . We will surely discuss that one in a future thread, so stay tunned for more Braganza jewelry . There are still more jewels worn by Dona Isabel to be posted here, as I said before her collection is growing. --Previous Message-- : : Beautiful combination of jewels. I felt : HRH looked very elegant and the black : gown/shrug were an excellent choice as the : jewels were accented instead of getting lost : in another outfit that was more brightly : colored. "Less is more" as the : saying goes. Is that a brooch closing the : shrug or is part of the outfit? Sorry, I'm a : little ignorant. : --Previous Message-- : I much prefer the bandeau (which is a very : beautiful piece) worn without a necklace. : Wouldn't like to see it mirrored in one way : or the other... The earrings seem to be : beautiful and the stones look quite : substantial. From a practical point of view : I'm rather surprised though about an : acquisition which is so similar in : shape/size/colour to the wedding earrings. : : : --Previous Message-- : In 20 October 2012 the Hereditary Gran-Duke : of : Luxembourg married Countess Stéphanie de : Lannoy as we all know. We also know that the : Grand-Dukes offered a Gala Diner in the : evening of the (religious) wedding. Now what : is new. : Because of the amount of guests those were : divided in two groups for the Gala (that : toke place in two different places). The : Dukes of Braganza were family and close : friends and probably because of that they : stayed in the main group (even not being a : reigning family). In this kind of things the : jewels used by the woman were obviously : discussed but for some reason nobody really : cared about the Duchess of Braganza. In fact : I only read criticisms about her dress and : the lack of major jewels (for example a : necklace). But I only can assume that they : said that because didn’t took attention to : the earrings used by the Duchess. To me they : appear to be diamonds with quite big diamond : pendants. What about you? What do you think? : : : : : : : : P.S - please do not speak of other earrings : because they probably will have their own : thread. : : : : : :
