You are right Arthur, see the following photo of 1964 pre-wedding evening, the earrings look tear drop in the bottom part, while the ones worn in Madrid are round shape: --Previous Message-- : Thank you, Carlo, for your sharp eyes. : : The pictures I have posted are from 1966 and : 1968. So it would be possible that Queen : Frederika bought the earrings from Queen : Elena between 1964 and 1966 (NB: I do not : say it is the case, as I have no particular : information, just that it would be : possible). : : For Constantine II and Anne-Marie's wedding : in 1964, Queen Frederika wore a pair of : sapphire earrings, but they look to me : slightly different from the ones worn in : Madrid in 1966 and 1968. : : The differences pointed out by Carlo between : Elena's and Frederika's earrings seem more : convincing. Has anyone a larger picture of : Queen Elena with these earrings? : : : --Previous Message-- : IMO the earrings worn by Queen Federica : cannot : be the same as the ones belonging to Queen : Elena because the latter wore hers at King : Constantine II's wedding ceremony. : : Furthermore, the two pairs of earrings look : quite different: Elena's pair seem to have : only a bottom cluster of sapphire and : diamonds, while Federica's earrings are more : elaborate with a top little cluster with a : sapphire encircled with diamonds and : separeted by the bottom part with a motif of : 3 diamonds. : : Queen Federica wore hers at pre-wedding ball : with the huge sapphire as seen in the : photos. : : See HM Queen Elena in the background in both : photos wearing what they look like her : earrings in question: : : : : : : : : : : : :
