Wallis certainly enjoyed having statement pieces in her collection! I like Deco and unusual designs, such as panthers, leopards and various birds in jewellery, also am a fan of coloured gems rather than diamonds. However, this collection epitomised the Duchess herself I think, a bit flashy a little OTT, not much delicacy in the overall finish in the end.

The pearls given by Queen Mary and the big Olga Tritt pearls were so lovely, it ended up on Anne Klein but she too sold them off.

The Duchess of Windsor’s Emerald Necklace,the pear-shaped emerald is believed to have belonged to King Alfonso XIII of Spain,who inherited it from his aunt the Infanta Isabel of Spain and sold it off during his exile.
