    : The diamond snake necklace is well known,
    : since Camilla has worn it for years, even
    : before her wedding to the Prince of Wales in
    : 2005.

    : The large amethyst earrings have already
    : been worn occasionally by Camilla. The
    : earliest event I have spotted with Camilla
    : wearing these earrings was on 4th December
    : 2006. She has worn them either with the
    : diamond snake necklace (pictured above), or
    : with a necklace made of small amethysts and
    : diamonds, or with a pearl and amethyst
    : necklace with a large central heart-shaped
    : amethyst, which was Queen Alexandra's
    : wedding gift to the Queen Mother in 1923:
