I have always loved that Princess Abamalek tiara--it reminds me so much of the Poltimore. At first glance I sometimes confuse the two. Is that a yellow diamond in the middle?
Love the amethyst necklace: ING Arts - Photographs

Would cameo fit under the semi-precious royal jewelry thread?

So which are your favourite royal cameos?
This one from ING's Brilliant Europe is interesting in that it incorporates diamonds with the cameo: Cameo portrait of Napoleon I.

I have to say that my favorite royal cameos (and some will say I'm crazy) would be the ones in the Swedish Royal Family--I love how Silvia wore the cameo tiara for her wedding. Very impressive.
I can't really think of any other cameo sets--it may just be that I am so tired right now--well, wait a moment, weren't Victoria and Albert's RFO's cameos? I know there were levels of orders, but I can't recall at thsi moment!

I still think that the Swedish cameo tiara is not the best. The workmanship is exquisite, but for a wedding tiara- ewwugh

OH, I totally agree that the thing is HUGE and probably cumbersome to wear, but Silvia makes it look easy. I also like that the piece is so historic--it makes it even more special!

Lately I've become fascinated with Jade. Do any of the European Royal Families own fabulous Jade jewels?

I love the amethyst ones, I think it just such a beautiful jewel. But are there any Garnet ones? I rare see any garnet jewels in general, normal it's always ruby that gets used.
