jewelry Boxes For Women: Gorgeous Collections Inspired by Royal families

jewelry was and is an essential part of the royal families across the world. The Queens and princesses of every generation had a number of heirlooms to pass down. Of all the royal families around, the British royal family's jewelry boxes for women held the most gorgeous collections.

Princess Diana remained a celebrity in her life and now even in her death. There were some pieces of jewelry she had which she considered her favorite. Several members of the royal family gifted these different pieces to her. She often wore The Queen Mary tiara.

Among her favorites were also an emerald and diamond choker. She also had a large sapphire set into a brooch and which she later chose to wear as a pearl choker. The royal family has a number of pieces that came down the generations.

In 1820, The George IV State diadem was made and this had 1333 diamonds as well as 169 pearls placed on its base. During their coronations, both Queen Victoria and Elizabeth II wore this one. The Russian Fringe Tiara is a piece of royal jewelry owned by George III. A number of Queens Consorts wore this till Queen Victoria finally changed it to a tiara at a later point.

The Queen Mary Fringe Tiara was made especially for Queen Mary in 1919. These were created from diamonds belonging to George III and some that were used from the tiara of Queen Victoria. This particular piece has quite a long heritage with it being passed from Princess Elizabeth to Princess Anne.

The Vladimir Tiara was purchased in 1921 by Queen Mary from Duchess Elena Vladimirovna of Russia. 15 Cambridge Cabochon emeralds were fitted into this crown. Elizabeth II inherited this from her grandmother and the piece is teamed only with the Cambridge and the Delhi Durbar Parure. Elizabeth the II wore this tiara for her official photograph as the Queen of Canada.

It was in 1973 that Elizabeth II ordered the Burmese Ruby Tiara. The design by Garrard & Co. was in the form of a wreath of roses. The roses were designed in clusters along with rubies and gold for the center of the flower as well as petals of diamonds and silver. A total of 96 diamonds sourced from Elizabeth's own private collection were used in the creation of this piece in addition to rubies and the diamonds. The people of Burma gifted the rubies to her on her wedding day and that is how the name came about.

There are several diamonds cut in different ways that make up The King George VI Chandelier earrings. They taper off with 3 sets of diamonds cut in every known way. Her parents gifted Princess Elizabeth these. The Queen Anne and Queen Caroline Pearl Necklaces together are estimated to be worth around £4,000,000. Each of them is a row of massive graduated pearls with pearl clasps. This necklace is believed to be a part of Queen Anne’s collection.

The royal family collections are gorgeous and will definitely go down in the records of history. It can be quite charming to have imitation jewelry of the same kind.
