Yes, that's the one. I liked it to look at but not to wear. I guess I don't have to worry about that though lol!

Queen Rania today at the "Ambrosetti" economic and financial meeting in Cernobbio, Lake Como, northern Italy. September 2, 2005
Pic from Petra.

Rania wearing a golden pearl necklace. I dont think I've seen her wear this before.

To be honest, that looks like costume jewellery to me.

She probably does have several pieces of costume jewelry (as I'm sure most royals do). I'm personally *not* a big fan of the chunkier look of the necklace but the ring looks interesting.

Rania has been wearing lots of costume jewellery this year. But then she has never been one to wear the real stuff unless she's at a formal event. Most of the time she keeps things simple.

I love jewelry and if I could afford it, I'd have a lot more than what I have now :) Queen Rania has good taste in jewelry - daywear and evening wear (specially evening wear) :) About the only thing I really don't like is that emerald tiara that she wore once. I don't think it looked good on her. Too... emeraldy... if there's such a word I don't think that piece would look good on anyone IMHO.

True, I like that about her jewellery, it seems simple practical, stylish and incredibly inexpensive.

June 22, 2003. World Economic Forum in Jordan
QR has worn these earrings several times and but in this picture I noticed something for the very first time. Those aren't just rows of diamonds inside the square, but infact the arabic word "Allah."
If it hadn't been for a nice close-up of the earring I never would've noticed it.
Picture from Petra.

Those earrings are fantastic, I'd love to get something similar. I'm not a big fan of "Allah" necklaces as they're often quite in your face and gaudy but those earrings are such a unique way of wearing isomething so important

have you seen Queen Noor's Allah necklace? Its very pretty. She wears it quite often.
I'd love to get a few of them myself, small ones with a calligraphic look and in various stones.
I cant remember who it was, but I saw someone wearing a small Allah ring. It was very pretty too.

I haven't noticed Noor's at all. I'll look out for it.
I've got a couple of various necklaces with Allah on them, 1 of those necklaces which opens up and has a small segment of the Qur'an written inside and a necklace of the Kaa'ba that my parents got me when they did Hajj, but they're all gold. It would be nice if you could get them in silver.

yes the one I have right now is in gold too.
I'd love to get more in different precious stones. Might have to design some of them myself.
Pictures of Q.Noor's necklace are in her jewellery thread. She hasnt worn it lately, at least not in the latest pics we've seen of her. She wore it a lot after King Hussein's death.

Another pair of earrings that Queen Rania has worn many times. I found some great close-ups. (Petra)


The old thread has pics of some of the many events at which QR has worn these earrings:

The Boucheron website no longer has a picture of the emerald tiara worn by QR during the swedish state visit. But I found a picture (thanx to Magickal Rania)

The emeralds are set in black gold. I think stones of a lighter colour would've suited the black setting much better. Still, taking a closer look at the tiara's twiglike base and the leaves, the emeralds make sense. Its supposed to look like a tree branch:p

Ivory and pearls really suit her. I hope she wears them more often. Jacqueline Kennedy wore pearls often, noting they "bring light to one's face."

Does anyone have a photo of what I'm calling Queen Rania's "lariat" necklace? It's stunning and very simple. It has a longish chain with diamonds perhaps running in a line from her neck for about 2 1/2". I would love something like it--but saw it once and now can't find a photo.......

the linear/lariat style seems to be one of QR's favourites.
