Hello,
while wandering on the net, I have found this large picture of Queen Elizabeth II during her State Visit to Austria in 1969.
The Queen is wearing Queen Alexandra's Peeresses Kokoshnik Tiara, the Emerald Godman Necklace, Queen Mary's True Lovers Knot Brooch and Queen Victoria's Emerald Fringe Earrings.
It is the best picture I have ever seen of these rarely seen earrings.
According to Leslie Field, these earrings were purchased by Queen Victoria in April 1850, and left by her to the Crown.
Enjoy!
(and sorry for the silly caption overprinted on the picture, for which I am not responsible)
