Myabe the Queen is genuinely enjoying the pleasures of those beautiful jewels. The impression in her early years on the throne was that the jewels were more or less obligatory and not really a pleasure to wear. --Previous Message-- : I agree Merlin. There's something almost : frisky and bold about it--also generous and : majestic--"I am the undoubted : Queen!" Imagine getting a close-up : view of that treasure. I love the gesture. : : --Previous Message-- : : I wonder if anyone has ever seen a photo of : QEQM wearing this brooch on a coat or dress : in the day ? : I don't think I have. : It makes the Queen wearing it at Ascot : yesterday even more interesting. : : : : --Previous Message-- : I forgot to say, most of the information I : posted about the Crown Ruby brooch came from : Suzy Menkes (1985) book. Also the picture of : The Queen Mother which has been posted on : this site before was taken in 1969. Thanks : for all the pictures at the races. : Cheers Annie : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :
