Queen Fabiola Of The Belgians Jewellery

[Hannelore]

The last years Fabiola hasn't been seen wearing a lot of jewellery anymore, but in her young days she was really glamorous.

Bejewelled for the Spanish state visit, 2000

With the marvellous tiara she recieved for her wedding, from Franco.

The diamonds in the middle of the flowers, can be replaced by other stones.

She's also got a smaller tiara (made by the Belgian jeweller Wolfers), that can be worn as a necklace as well.

The jewels are lovely, but I'm even more impressed at her hairstyle...

[Gabriella]

I know this sounds horribly morbid, and I almost feel bad for asking, but I've always wanted to know, what will happen to her wonderful jewels once she passes away? Will they revert to the crown, or divided up between Paola and Albert's children, or to certain other family members? I've always thought that she has the most wonderful of all of the Belgian jewels, and it would be a shame if they went elsewhere.

1. Belgian empire tiara
Interesting photo: then Fabiola was queen and Paola princess; now they're both queens, but Paola comes first, and wears this tiara!
2. Wedding gift tiara as a bandeau
Bejewelled Fabiola. Diamonds also look nice in grey hair...

It would be lovely if Fabiola shared her jewels with the royal ladies of Belgium, her wedding gift tiara, the wolfers one, the diamond flowers, the base of her wedding gift tiara

[Fireweaver]

Now Hans, let her enjoy her tiara a bit longer :) She still goes to some gala events and it would look odd to not see a former queen in tiara when everyone else (female that is) has one on :)
Hopefully, many, many, many, many years from now, when she's passed on, she will leave it to the RF in her will.

hihi, not you but the tiara, the jewel can be worn with 3 types of stones: aquamarines, emerald & rubies.

In full coronet-form, a real crown.
A flower tiara
the diamond base only

versitile and beautiful. More tiaras should be like that (not necessarily the same design, or we'd all be bored looking at them after a while!).

1. Fabiola with the Wolfers tiara
2. Could she be wearing a part of her wedding gift tiara as a necklace here?
3. I can't see very well which tiara she's wearing here...The bandeau tiara of queen Elisabeth, the base of the tiara of the nine provinces?
4. A picture I had never seen before, Fabiola wearing the base of the tiara of the nine provinces;
