The Royal Collection site lists several items of jewellery which Queen Victoria directed were to be placed after her death in the room in which Prince Albert died and were not to be passed on within the family. Those identified by the Royal Collection are all of a personal nature, given to her by her husband, mother or children. For example:
http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/collection/65290/queen-victorias-charm-bracelet
http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/collection/65295/princess-victorias-first-locket
http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/collection/65280/queen-victorias-ring
http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/collection/65288/queen-victorias-bracelet
http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/collection/65284/brooch
Among other items which I cannot find links to at present are a bracelet with portraits of QV's children and a tiara, necklace and earrings based on orange blossoms which the Queen wore each year on her wedding anniversary.
Does anyone know more about these jewels?
