Oh there was a lot more !! From HM The Queen - the Lovers Knot Tiara, The emerald choker from the Cambridge Emeralds suite, the huge Sri Lankan Sapphire from HM The Queen Mother and emerald earrings and bracelet and suite of sapphires and diamonds from Prince Charles to name but a few.

On this link from Kiki McDonough (designer of Catherine's citrine earrings and green amethyst earrings worn on Christmas):
Stars - About - Kiki Mcdonough Jewellery
Towards the bottom, there is a picture of Diana wearing a pair of Kiki McDonough earrings. Diana is wearing a pink with purple trim suit.
Is it the same earrings as this: http://www.dianasjewels.net/Earrings/0000277199-014.jpg
I'm not sure if these pictures were taken on the same day. The hair looks different in both. But just wondering what earrings Diana is wearing.
Thanks.

No, those earrings actually belong to the Spencer family and Diana borrowed them for her wedding day. In fact, one of her sisters wore them to William and Kate's wedding and had to get them back from the traveling exhibition of Diana's wedding gown to do so.

Yes - they belonged to Diana's Mother, the Honourable Mrs Shand Kydd. They are quite lovely.

The most instantly recognizable gem in the world, I think. Every girl's favorite choice of e-ring at the time of Charles' and Diana's engagement.

Given that her family already had a tiara, it makes more sense for her to wear that tiara rather than one from the royal vaults. I don't remember the possibility of another tiara being mentioned.

I love the fact that they look old and outdated, makes them much more regal and precious. She was a very sweet bride!

Her wedding earrings belonged to her mother. It was Diana's "something borrowed".

The Spencer tiara was her something old (though the lace on her dress technically could have qualified). Her dress was something new, her earrings borrowed, and there was a blue ribbon on the horse shoe she had sewn into the under part of her dress for good luck.
Kate followed suit with the blue ribbon (no horse shoe). Her dress was the old (Diana didn't use her lace as old, Kate used the old style lace as her old). The borrowed was the Halo tiara, and new were her earrings.

 Diana didn't create it; she picked it out of a tray that was sent over. Sarah's ring was designed by Andrew, though.

I think that's the most iconic piece of jewelry along with her e-ring; I loved how she modified the brooch the Queen Mother gave her into a pearl choker. Absolutely magnificent, and I'd love to see this on Kate if William has inherited it.
