Jewels of Queen Alexandra Sapphires Necklace Silver Wedding gift
Die Brosche mittig ist aus einem Cluster, des Colliers gefertigt und hat einen großen Cabochon.
Im Gegensatz zu der Brosche die von Kaiserin getragen wird und einen facettierten großen Saphir als Zentrum hat.
Auguste Viktoria Friederike Luise Feodora Jenny of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg was the wife of Emperor Wilhelm II and as such from 1888 to 1918 German Empress and Queen of Prussia.
The empress often wore this large oval diamond brooch and Devante de Corsage and was shown in different pictures. The large faceted oval sapphire is framed by 20 evenly sized diamonds and two larger diamonds on the short lengths. A large, even pearl hangs movable on the brooch with an eyelet and three diamonds. There are flourishes made of diamonds on both sides.
The Duchess wore the smaller version of the historic sapphire and diamond parure in 1984 and 1985 at least in public.
Unfortunately the historic Cambridge sapphires and diamond set, consist of the sapphire and diamond cluster tiara, the sapphire and diamond choker, the sapphire and diamond earrings, the sapphire and diamond brooch was also sold and is not in the royal family anymore.
When the founder of the jewel house Moira died in November 2020, it came up to the light, the historic smaller parure fragments are owned by her.
Nothing is known about the cluster tiara.
Princess Gloria, née Countess von Schönburg-Glauchau, has a very high-quality and unusual collection, despite the sale of part of the jewelry and jewels of the Princely House of Thurn und Taxis collected over the years, from which we can see a few remarkable pieces.
The high diadem in the empire style. Like the front side of a grenadier cap, set with diamonds has a large oval sapphire as the center, a large cushion-shaped sapphire is also attached above as a tip, both are carmized with diamonds and changeable. A frame made of diamonds.
Openwork, filigree scroll work of diamonds forms a high structure, acanthus leaves were worked into diamond-set borders and set accents. Another four sapphires are housed as highlights in the central motif, an exceptional jewel in the royal house’s treasury.
Like the complete diamond Parure, the tiara was revised in the 19th century by the renowned company Kreuter, Hanau specialist in white jewels, or supplemented with diamonds and precious stones from home jewelry.
The princess wears a necklace made of small flowers alternately set in diamonds and sapphires, the same size and workmanship, which can be lengthened or shortened as a choker close to the neck. The ear-studs in the lower part match the necklace, a sapphire framed with diamonds.
Archduchess Margarethe Klementine Maria of Austria 1870-1955, was a member of the Hungarian line of the House of Habsburg and an Archduchess of Austria by birth.
She married Albert, 8th Prince of Thurn and Taxis in 1890, the Prince ordered for her the sapphire and diamond parure by Kreuter, Hanau from older jewels and jewelry to rebuild a new versatile Parure, see above. In 1894, she was first time pictured with the tiara and the necklace.

The diadem was designed by the court jeweler Duval in St Petersburg in 1825, see design drawing in the link – and also produced.
Originally, 16 acacia branches set with diamonds were to be arranged as ornaments, as provided in the design. In the original, however, it was much more.
Alternating with this, flower ornaments with diamonds and a sapphire and 2 diamond roses were placed in the diadem.
The „S“-shaped diamond volutes connect the different ornaments with each other.
The base ring consisted of 9 sapphires framed by diamonds and alternating four diamond intermediate parts.
The center of the tiara consists of two sapphires. A crescent-shaped cabochon sapphire and an oval sapphire together form a rosette.
The diadem was originally designed as a Kokoshnik, then as a Coronet crown.
