some one mentioned Queen Victoria's ears of wheat brooches/hair ornimants could have been used here

but i think these pearly things would have been nice too

the Princess Royal must have been so hot with a uniform under her robes

maybe Laura does have something interesting on ??

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

what about those amethysts ?

I got very emotional when they started to bring the screens out with Zadok The Priest being played in the background. When the first note was sung by the choirs, I was in bits.

To me, that piece is one of the greatest ever written.

The Queen of Thailand seems to have outblinged all the visiting royalty. Those sapphires!

Round up of foreign royalty bling:

Foreign Royal Jewels (With Another Secret Tiara Moment!) at the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla

There were members of foreign royal families from around the world in attendance at the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla on Saturday in London, and they brought some of their best jewels

I know times have changed and obvious displays are frowned upon but it would have been nice to see some tiaras like in previous coronations…

Nice round up here for those interested to see how decked out everyone used to be.

Glittering Tiaras in the Royal Box: Princesses Sparkling at Coronations Past

At the moment, I know we're all on tenterhooks, waiting to see whether we'll get to marvel at major jewelry during Saturday's coronation or have to be contented with smaller (but probably still important) pieces.

My mistake: Princess Kiko, not empress Masako.

She was stunning.

I didn’t watch the coronation. Why were women asked to not wear tiaras? Was it for a show of austerity?

yes i think because of the cost of living crisis
the gutter press would have been totting up the value of everything
