I assume you are speaking about the square-shaped diamond ring which was the engagement ring of Camilla? There was a picture of the Queen Mother wearing it, which surfaced on the day of the engagement of Charles and Camilla. I seem to recall it was connected to the Greville inheritance, but cannot remember where I read that. --Previous Message-- : : Do you know it came from the Queen Mother's : estate? : It might have been a gift from her to : Charles. : : --Previous Message-- : What about the engagement ring Camilla : received from Charles that came from the : Queen Mother's estate? : : --Previous Message-- : : Officially, all of the Queen Mother's was : inherited by the Queen, thus avoiding death : duties and taxes, as arranged from one reign : to another when property passes from : sovereign to sovereign. : Though in the case of the Queen Mother it : applied under the arrangement of her late : husband the King. : : Many speculate that the Queen Mother might : have left instructions about who she would : like to enjoy her property.
