Yes, I saw it on Larry King when the words "Queen Noor of Jordan" weren't blocking it! It has to be the same. It's lovely. I had a feeling you would recognize it and I did see your posts on others......they're great!

I saw that interview and she said that her brother in Montana gave her it. But that was a long time ago. I hope I am getting my facts straight. But that allah necklace looks like an upside down cross. I guess that is quite figurative of how different Christianity and islam are.

It has nothing to do with a cross which is a symbol, not a word. Here's a few pics. The first one is Queen Noor's.

Well when I 1st saw it on the LArry King interview that is how it looked to me. But thanks for the explanation. I am learning arabic now so this is quite intriguing. But still that particular pendant looks like an upside down cross. But with that pendant I don't see how it starts with an alif, then with the l-we hav enot learned that letter yet so I don't know which one is the l.

Thanks all for posting those pictures. I like very much QN style: she usually wears many but she keeps them nice and well matching.
I love more the pearls and white gold she wears. My favorits :) Picture of QN wearing a brooch has a same tone to H. Clinton' brooch. Enjoy! Last edited by abir; 01-30-2005 at 02:36 PM.

Lovely dove brooch of QN. She wore it in many occasions. Down are pictures (some of them were posted earlier by TRF members) of QN with that particular lovely brooch. Hillary Clinton has similar one.
Pictures from Polfoto, Corbis and gettyimages. Enjoy! Last edited by abir; 01-31-2005 at 05:51 AM.

Dear Humera,
I love the Allah pendants! I am confused though so perhaps you can clear up; does she have two as the first one posted doesn't look like the one on Larry King, which seemed more geometric. They are both beautiful....thank you for the posts and information! Much appreciated. Mary Shawn

She also seems to change the rings she wears on her pinky finger more. At first, I think it was KH's wedding ring....now it looks different. She obviously likes the look and she carries it off beautifully.

I actually cant remember if thats the same pendant she wore to the Larry King interview. I do remember though that it was also a diamond pendant. I think it might be the same one since she wore it most often right after her husband's death.
