Wow! The multicoloured necklace brimming with precious stones
actually looks very modern.
I love the pearls and the tiara.

I think our bid for these beauties was a few dollars short ;D
GENEVA, Nov 14 (Reuters) - A pearl and diamond pendant that
belonged to French Queen Marie Antoinette sold for $36.427
million on Wednesday, Sotheby's said, adding it was a world
record for a pearl.
The star lot in its Geneva auction, the pendant sold for eight
times more than the pre-sale estimate for all 100 jewels from
the Bourbon Parma family, including 10 that belonged to the
executed queen.
The bidding battle for the pendant lasted about 10 minutes.

Not royal per se.....
The Portland Tiara as been stolen :'(
The sixth Duke of Portland commissioned Cartier to create the
tiara for his wife Winifred, Duchess of Portland.
She wore it to the 1902 coronation of King Edward VII. She was
one of four pall-bearers at Queen Alexandra's anointing.
