The royals have returned to their duties after the summer break and of course, they’ve done it in style.
The Prince and Princess of Wales stepped out yesterday for a visit to London’s Natural History Museum, where Kate – usually recognised for her signature brunette locks – surprised onlookers with a fresh new hairstyle. But it wasn’t just her hair that turned heads.
The Princess also wore a particularly meaningful necklace, adorned with the initials of her three children – a subtle yet heartfelt nod to her role as a mother.
Fine jewellery specialists at UK retailer Steven Stone have taken a closer look at the piece, breaking down every detail, from its craftsmanship to its estimated value.
“The Princess of Wales offered a sweet glimpse into her role as a mother when she debuted the meaningful new necklace back in 2021. Eagle-eyed fans quickly identified the delicate piece as the Gold Fixed Alphabet Necklace by UK jeweller Daniella Draper – a design that quite literally keeps her children close to her heart.
Crafted from recycled solid 9ct yellow gold, the necklace features three dainty initial charms strung along a fine 15-inch chain with a width of 1.7mm: an “L” for Louis, “C” for Charlotte, and “G” for George. Subtle yet deeply personal, it’s the kind of understated luxury that balances elegance with sentiment.
For those inspired by the Princess’s jewellery choice, the piece can be customised with up to six initials, making it a beautiful way to honour loved ones. Opting for the same customisation as Kate, with three delicate initials, brings the necklace to £625, a timeless keepsake that carries both elegance and meaning, telling a story with every letter.”
