Wishing Countess Marianne Bernadotte af Wisborg a very, very happy 100th birthday!
The Countess married the King of Sweden's uncle Sigvard (an accomplished designer) in 1961 and became a frequent attendee at royal functions in Scandinavia wearing a treasure trove of jewels and tiaras.

well you learn something every day
