Thanks for that. I only wondered, as the necklace the ruby tassle and the blue sapphire triangle thingie were on were the same, so I just wondered if they were interchangeable. I was sad not to see the Dynasty rubies again, as they were very glam, and Di wasn't known to shy away from a bit of bling in her day. I thought the Oman sapphires lovely, but could have been bigger.

And I was surprised to discover the amethysts were just that. For some reason I had always imagined they were paste (she did go through a very big Butler and Wilson period), but of course, I see now that they were priceless. Silly me.

My favourite Diana jewel I guess has to be the sapphire necklace from the Saudi's for the wedding gift. I just thought that was stunning. Such a shame there wasn't a tiara bunged in too... those stingy Sheikhs!
