Interesting question. I wonder if the custodian of the jewels would consider a 'no bend converter' where the post fits into barrel. It means the earrings would hang from below the earlobe which shouldn't be a problem with Queen Camilla's hairstyle.

These are what are now known as the Coronation Necklace and the Earrings for pierced ears. They were Queen VictorIa's necklace and earrings.
So I am wondering what earrings Queen Camilla will wear for her coronation.
I think you are correct that it probably couldn't hold the weight. Another idea is the way some heavy earrings of that weight and vintage sometimes have a wire connected which fits right over the ear itself, sort of like an old-fashioned hearing aid. I hope they can find a solution. Thanks for posting the photo.

Thank you Kirsten for that idea. I could not really see how they work. It would need to be a strong clip?
