Queen Camilla has been making waves with the moonstone brooch that she wore at Ascot over the weekend, but she also wore an incredibly symbolic emerald one a couple of days earlier for the National Harvest Festival Service.
Wearing an Anna Valentine emerald-green dress with long sleeves, the Queen complimented the striking hue with an antique brooch dating back to around 1890. The intricate design features two ribbon-like strands of green enamelled gold gracefully intertwined.
Symbolising the union of two lives bound by love, the brooch is a deeply poignant and romantic gesture from Queen Camilla, demonstrating her steadfast support for King Charles during a challenging period for the royal family, marked by Prince Andrew formally relinquishing his titles and the loss of Lady Annabel Goldsmith, a cherished family confidante.
Fine jewellery experts at UK retailer Steven Stone have taken a closer look at the piece, revealing everything there is to know…
“Queen Camilla has been subtly using her jewellery choices to convey her unwavering support for her husband.
At the National Harvest Festival Service, Her Majesty was seen wearing an exquisite enamel and diamond brooch. The piece, dating from around 1890, features a square of old-cut diamonds intertwined with two ribbon-like strands of green enamelled gold.
The interweaving of the two unbroken strands symbolises lives joined together by love, making the brooch an especially romantic choice – an elegant reminder that King Charles is always in her thoughts.
I would estimate the brooch’s value at around $25,000 (£20,000).”
