She is wearing the Russian sapphire brooch she inherited or was given by her grandmother Queen Olga. It was a very large cabochon sapphire. She sold it in the 1960's as she was in financial difficulties according to the reports of the time. Sorry do not have access to the sales catalogue at the moment --Previous Message-- : I wonder which stones encircled with diamonds : are set in Queen Elena's earrings and : brooch. Are they sapphires, emeralds, : rubies, any idea? : Thanks in advance. : : :
