That is right, the emeralds are meant to be one of the three suites Camilla received from the Saudi's.

I think it's very charming and thoughtful for the Duchess of Cornwall to wear her turquoise shamrock pin in Ulster. It looks very sweet.

Does anyone recognise the brooch Camilla wore during a visit to the BBC in London today?

Ont he 2nd day of Ascot, Camilla wore a pretty substantial pair of solitaire earrings. She has worn these earrings a few times recently, including at the Platinum Jubilee Service of Thanksgiving at St Pauls, and in Athens last year.

They look like an individual hanging collet diamond but if so they are huge!

That is correct. It is one large diamond suspended from a strip of gold (technical term  )!

With the DoCs recent admission that her ears are not pierced...I wonder now if this means we won't see many of the Queens earrings on her when the time comes. The Crown Rubies, Coronation Diamonds, George VI Sapphires, etc...I don't think any of them are clip ons or screw backs.

I am sure any earrings Camilla wants to wear can be reset to work for her ears. It will not be a major change.

Is that a new brooch Camilla is wearing today? Might it be aquamarine or a beryl in the middle?

Another photograph of the pin worn by the Duchess of Cornwall at the horseracing today. It looks art dèco. Was it the Queen Mum's?

That's quite possible or it was from the vast Windsor jewel Vault.
Either ways is a really beautiful brooch.

Star sapphire to me and looks older than deco, more edwardian

I don't recall seeing this brooch before so it could have been a 75th Birthday present.

I agree, I have never seen Camilla wear the brooch before so it could well be a birthday present. That said, the present could be from the BRF vaults.

Its a really beautiful brooch and isn't the Duchess clocking up a splendid collection!
Thank God some of the Royals still wear brooches.

She is indeed. But I do think she can wear brooches far more often than she does. As she steps up, I see no harm in seeing her with a brooch on most public engagements.
