Prince Harry and Meghan Markle spent the weekend touring Nigeria and as always, Meghan did it in style.
It’s no secret that Meghan has an eye for jewellery and over the years, Harry has presented her with a wealth of pieces – including some from Princess Diana’s collection
It’s not unusual to see Meghan flaunting iconic pieces. In the past, she’s dazzled with items like her late mother-in-law’s Cartier Tank Française watch and Aquamarine cocktail ring.
During the couple’s latest trip, Meghan was seen wearing a new necklace from Princess Diana’s collection. Reportedly a recent gift from Prince Harry, the unfamiliar piece has sparked particular interest. Fine jewellery experts at UK retailer Steven Stone have taken a closer look…
“It’s no secret that Meghan has an eye for jewellery and over the years, Harry has presented her with a wealth of pieces – including some from Princess Diana’s collection. Reportedly a recent gift from Harry that hails from his late Mother’s collection, her latest piece has sparked particular interest due to its unfamiliarity.
The piece in question is a diamond crucifix necklace. Sat on a thin yellow gold chain is a delicate pendant that consists of what appears to be a central round cut diamond, surrounded by four baguette diamonds arranged in the shape of a cross.
The symbolism behind cross necklaces goes beyond religious beliefs. Wearing a cross necklace can serve as a reminder of one’s faith and a source of strength during challenging times, such as the painful rift between the couple and members of the royal family.
Though it’s a fairly simplicity piece, the necklace oozes with sentiment and history due to its predecessor. With this in mind, I’d estimate it to be worth £8,000 ($10,000).”
