    Thanks for those great photos Arthur.
    I thought this brooch had more colour to it, but lovely none the less.

    : Queen Elizabeth II attended today (24 June,

    : As for jewels, she wore her Three-Thistle
    : Diamond Brooch – a very appropriate jewel
    : for Scotland, that she has worn several

    : ). Possibly a Diamond Jubilee Gift?

    : Zimbio has nice pictures of the Queen and of
    : her brooch. It confirms it must be made of
    : yellow and white diamonds rather than of
    : gold and silver.
