The only colored stone I've seen her wearing are the Opals. Mostly it's gold or diamonds...and very few diamonds.

Also ..the 3 rings on her right hand...did she wear those pre-Harry?

Wedding rings in the UK and indeed my own country all used to be plain gold rings. Then there was a move to make them flatter and embellish the tops but the idea of a circle of stones it very new as seen by Catherines.
Strangely enough, I have never been a fan of matchy, matchy ring sets. There is something very pedestrian buying three ring sets. I love the engagement ring as a marker of something very special. I like the idea of a wedding ring that is designed to sit flush with the engagement ring and an eternity ring should one be added.
In the last picture you can see her engagement ring, and I must say it really is nice. In fact, very similar to Sophie Wessex's (unintentionally, I am sure, but Sophie has three diamonds set in yellow gold as well). A really nice ring.
What about Diana's wedding ring? Can it be used to make Megan's wedding ring? Especially since Kate received Diana's engagement ring?
I also realized in the above photos that the mix of white gold for the engagement rights with the yellow gold of the wedding rings look odd. At least Megan's engagement and wedding rings will have the same metal.
I still don't understand why she's wearing those rings on all her fingers. It baffles me. Who does that at formal events? Even at Westminster Abbey for Commonwealth Service she still had at least a ring on her index finger.
