No they aren't, they were bought at the Belgian jeweler Leysen in 2003.
From an article in PDV (interview with Leysen):

"The collection of jewels from Leysen was used for the winter défilé of Belgian fashion designer Pierre Gauthier (where Mathilde also buys gala dresses - another good customer of Gauthier is princess Sibilla of Luxemburg), but it was at the polo club in Paris, during another défilé that prince Filip saw Leysen's collection. The royal couple passed by at the jeweler's shop on the Sablon in Brussels to take a closer look at the collection. Afterwards Filip came back on his own to buy a surprise gift for his wife : these white and yellow diamond earrings."

She wore them for the first time at the children's gala in Versailles, and also at the gala dinner for the Greek president. On trade mission in China, Mathilde combined them with a gorgeous green velvet and fur dress from Natan. The yellow diamonds were replaced by emeralds - beautiful!

Thank you for the photos! She is looking as elegant and radiant as always!
 
Thank you for the story and photos Hannelore. I had actually seen those photos before, but I never really paid attention to those lovely earrings until that close-up photo. The earrings are like its wearing beautiful and elegant.
 
Thank you Cathérine for the latest pictures of Philippe and Mathilde and thank you Hannelore for the story about the earrings. :)

Mathilda's choice of colors is fantastic. I love the shoes coordinating with the top. She does look a little tired though. I suppose that I would be tired too if I had two small children and another on the way. What a trooper.

I agree. That colour really suits her. She looks lovely as always but I also agree that she looks a little tired (yes, I know we shouldn't judge). Anyway, thanks for the photos leon. :)

Thanks Larzen. I didn't even notice the handbag there. Oops! Does anyone know which art gallery she is visiting?

It isn't an art gallery, it's the palais des beaux arts (palace of fine arts) in Brussels, to the exhibition "from Ensor to Bosch", about the many masterpieces in Belgian museums.

She looks tired yes, two small children and a pregnancy and work isn't a garantee for serene living :)

Thank you all for these wonderful pictures of Mathilde, she looks absolutely radiant, maybe a little tired in some of the pictures, but with her beautiful smile it's almost not noticeable. I like the shoes coordinating with the top as well - it's very summery. :)
 
There are more pictures of Philippe and Mathilde at the ballet for the gala night of the King Baudouin Foundation in Ghent on June 29th 2005, and of Mathilde's visit to the exhibition "from Ensor to Bosch" on July 5th 2005 at this link:

Well, I think the pictures have been posted before, but you can never have too much of a good thing in my opinion. ;):)
