from last night gala source face to face

queen silvia is one elegant queen!
she also wear her jewels very well. she always looks so glamorous.

just wondering:
1) is there a close-up of the emerald necklace in post#20. is it the bernadotte emerald necklace?
2) does she have a set of ruby jewels?
3) what is the bernadotte foundation?

[Josefine]

silvia wpre the nine prag tiara last night but what necklace was it

[soCal girl]

I don't think I've seen Queen Siliva ever wear the Ruby Tiara to a Nobel before. IMO it doesn't really look good on her but I'm surprised in the 28+ years she's been to Nobel that she hasn't worn it...right?

[Josefine]

no she has never worn it

in the thread about silvia and nobel you will see photos from all the years she has taken part and what tiaras she has worn

[christinacg]

She has got access to the best jewelry collection imo (aside from the British royal family perhaps).

tomorrow night, no matter which tiara she wears, I'm sure she'll look spectacular!

[Josefine]

the Braganca Diamond Tiara she wore last night was a long time since we say "i think" but it was great to see once more

Queen Silvia wore a completely new ruby demi-parure for the recent gala in New York's Winter Garden, see the link on this forum:

The design is most beautiful IMO ( looks like late 20's/early 30s? ) and the necklace is quite impressive, so would anybody have any info about this new addition to her jewelry collection?
My hope is that she might combine it with the rarely worn Connaught ruby tiara she has to form a complete ruby parure.

Queen Siliva wore some beautiful jewelry in Luxembourg.

Here is a beautiful diamond and emerald necklace. One of my recent favorite pieces that Queen Siliva has worn. (From Getty Images): http://www.imgster.com/ims/pic.php?u=274QBivf&i=3326

You can see a bit of her necklace and earrings, I couldn't find a better picture with a clearer view of her necklace. (From Getty Images): http://www.imgster.com/ims/pic.php?u=274QBivf&i=3327


This was not in Luxembourg but I thought it was a beautiful gold and pearl drop necklace. (From Getty Images): http://www.imgster.com/ims/pic.php?u=274QBivf&i=3328

I don't have any images to add right now although I am looking, but just wanted to say how well she always wears her jewellry. They are all magnificant and she never disappoints with her classy style! The Bernadotte jewels are definitely my favorite.

Hmmm, while I agree that the tiara may not be the most beautiful, certainly you can appreciate the uniqueness of it. It is (as far as I know) the only large cameo tiara in use by a royal family, and you just don't see very many cameo tiaras that are that large. It is, I suppose, a relic of a very specific time (the beginning of the 19th century).

Actually, it was this tiara which first captivated me when I saw it on television while in the United Kingdom. I guess it's for that reason that I still appreciate it so much. Queen Silvia has so many beautiful tiaras, that I really appreciate the stranger ones for their ability to shake things up a bit. Perhaps I'm jaded.

You haven´t got the ruby tiara, even though one can wonder if it is still in the possetion of the RF since we only have seen Silvia wear it once - at Prince Joakim & Alexandras wedding in 1995, atleast that´s the only time i can recall seeing the queen wearing it. But maybe she has it locked up in the vaults beacuse of the dispute with prince Sigvard a few years ago

[mims111]

ok thaks!
but good image of that tiara is really hard to find, because, I found only photoshopped version and on other photos it vas very blury. *sigh*

[Josefine]

small photos of the tiara can be found in my blogg
