Thank you TheRoyalsandI and Malluu. I find it very enlightening to see in a list where the various jewels went. Thank you Malluu for the superb photos. I know that the origins of the sapphire brooch, now worn by Crown Princess Mary, was discussed by the board at the time Prince Christian was christened, but I had forgotten the details, so I was very interested to see the brooch in a discussion of Crown Princess Margaret's jewels. I was interested to see that, in the text accompanying the sketch of the Crown Princess' wedding gifts, the ruby tiara from Edward VII and Queen Alexandra and the Connaught tiara were both described as coronets. Today we would not classify them as coronets. How definitions change. Many thanks. I am hoping to read many more posts.
