I had never seen (or more precisely never noticed) this ruby and diamond bracelet before, but the Queen Mother has worn it several times, mostly in the 1950s-1960s:
1950: State Visit to Britain of French President Vincent Auriol (picture previously posted on this board by Nellie):
1953: performance of the opera 'Gloriana', by Benjamin Britten, at Covent Garden Royal opera House, in relation with the Coronation festivities
1955: reception at Salisbury, South Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe):
1958: visit to New-Zealand:
(date unidentified) Official portrait:
It would be fine to see this interesting bracelet again!
