Ruby and Diamond Collarette a Silver Wedding Present from the Ladies of South Australia to the Princess of Wales

It was a valuable jewellery gift from the the Ladies of South Australia to the Princess of Wales in 1889 (future Queen Alexandra).

The present consisted of a necklet made from South Australian gold, South Australian rubies and Brazilian diamonds. The collarette consisted of twenty-five links each set with three three Australian rubies and four Brazilian diamonds. Suspended from the collarette was „an exquisite pendant, attached by two pieces of cable chain, and sustaining two cornucopias. A beautifully-chased shell occupies the space between these, and in the centre a very large ruby surmounts six diamonds, and close by three pretty-coloured rubies hand in claw settings, a diamond surmounting the centre one. The set is completed by a pair of South Australian gold and ruby bangles,each one containing eleven very large rubies and twenty diamonds.“ Never seen again in public!
It was presented in a opulent silver casket  of 500 ounces Australian Silver (ca 1,5kg) more

Jewellery worn by The Queen for the Coronation

On Coronation Day, The Queen wore important diamond jewellery that both fitted the occasion and had strong historic references.

For the journey to Westminster Abbey, she wore the Diamond Diadem, which was designed and made by Rundell, Bridge & Rundell in 1820 for George IV’s coronation the following year.

The design incorporates the national emblems of the thistle, rose and shamrock, and includes 1,333 diamonds set in silver and gold.

The Coronation Necklace, R. & S. Garrard & Co., 1858 It has acquired its name from having been worn at the coronations of Queen Alexandra in 1901, Queen Mary in 1911, Queen Elizabeth in 1937 and Her Majesty The Queen in 1953.

Like almost all inherited royal jewellery, it has undergone complicated changes since it was originally made.

It now consists of 25 graduated cushion-cut brilliant diamonds set in silver with gold links, and a large pendant diamond of 22.48 metric carats, known as the Lahore Diamond.
