    I think back during the time of the banquet, I suggested that it might be this bracelet worn by Queen Elizabeth.



    Cheers!

    : Hello Bryce,
    :
    : "delicate" is a very subjective
    : comment, so it is not a really descriptive
    : word...
    :
    : I am sure the bracelet worn at the State
    : Banquet for the Irish President is not the
    : black and white pearl bracelet. The design
    : looks really different. I would say it is a
    : 19th century design, typical of
    : late-Georgian or Victorian jewellery. But I
    : do not have seen this bracelet earlier.

    : I do not think that I would describe the
    : Irish
    : State bracelet as "delicate".
    : Looks pretty chunky.
    :
    : Could this one possibly be the Black &
    : White Pearl bracelet??
    :
    : Cheers!

    : Thank you, Baxter, for the "older"
    : pictures!
    :
    : And thank you, Franck, for the indications
    : about Field. When Leslie Field mentioned
    : " a modern triple-row brilliant-cut
    : diamond bracelet, which the Queen wears at
    : evening functions " ( The Queen's
    : Jewels , page 34 of the 2002 reprint), I
    : thought that she refered to the Baguette and
    : Brilliant Bracelet, but I have apparently
    : misunderstood her.
    :
    : I am curious about another bracelet
    : mentioned by Field in the same phrase as the
    : one quoted above. It is described as "
    : a delicate narrow link bracelet with floral
    : motifs, which has not been seen in public
    : ". I know that these last words are
    : quite discouraging, but has anyone seen this
    : bracelet? May be the Queen has worn it in
    : public posteriorly to The Queen's Jewels
    : first publication in 1987? Could it be the
    : diamond bracelet worn on 8th April, 2014
    : during the recent Irish State visit?

    : Dear all,
    :
    : There are two diamonds bracelets :
    :
    : - one given by her father ;(loaned to
    : Princess Diana)
    : - one described by Leslie Field as a modern
    : triple row diamond bracelet ; (this one worn
    : at the 1988 Order of the British empire
    : service)
    :
    : Best regards,
    :

    : The bracelet has been around for many years.
    : It was worn to the 1988 Order of the British
    : Empire service.
    :
    :
    : Although I failed to adequately capture it,
    : there is a shot of the bracelet in the 1992
    : documentary made to mark HM's forty years on
    : the throne which shows that there are two
    : "knot" motifs.
