Thank you so much for your kind answer, Beth, and the nice picture of Their Majesties! I guessed, it might be an heirloom from QEQM, but didn't found a proof. But you're absolutely right - this is the same brooch. It's lovely to see the brooches of the late QEQM coming back to daylight via The Duchess of Cornwall - the late Queen Mother had such a superb collection of brooches . Silly me, I often forget to watch at the ladie's hats, though particularly QEQM often wore lovely brooches on their hats. And suddenly, after second/third/... sight, I notice these jewels... . --Previous Message-- : I think it might be the Queen Mother's thistle : brooch. I have only ever seen QEQM wear it : on her hat. There is one photo where it is : really clear (HM was dressed in more casual : clothes and probably in Scotland) but I : don't have a copy. : : : : :
