Thanks for those great photos Arthur. I thought this brooch had more colour to it, but lovely none the less. Cheers! Bryce --Previous Message-- : Queen Elizabeth II attended today (24 June, : 2014) the first day of the Commonwealth : Games in Glasgow. The Queen visited the : Athletes Village, then attended hockey and : swimming competitions. : : As for jewels, she wore her Three-Thistle : Diamond Brooch – a very appropriate jewel : for Scotland, that she has worn several : times since 2012 (always in Scotland + a : recent photo portrait by Harry Benson: : http://members2.boardhost.com/royal-jewels/msg/1404230478.html : ). 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. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :
