Love, love, love these pearls!!!! Both sets! That Dutch vault is soon deep it's amazing. Keep digging Maxima! I always look forward to what she is going to wear next!
I think these pearls are actually acquired by Queen Máxima herself and do not belong to the family collection. She also has a necklace of grey/black pearls to go with the earrings.
The bracelet is most defitently from the Emerald Pauvre set, and the earrings are most likely another setting of the original pauvre earrings. The broach isn't apart of the original pauvre, but it's been in the family for some time.

I believe the gray pearls and white pearls are from the same set. I think she can interchange all of her pearl earrings with gray or white. There is also a formal diamond setting that can be worn and the bottom drop can be taken off for a daytime pearl and diamond stud......Lovely. I have always wondered if this was a wedding gift as she has been wearing these pearls since close to her marriage....
The butterfly brooch is very pretty and I like the bracelets. Lovely jewellery; I'm looking foward into seeing what Maxima wears in the upcoming visits to Germany and Denmark!

The design on the formal emerald and diamond bracelet is very simple, just stones set in a line. But when you look at the size of each stone it is so very impressive. The Dutch jewels seem to have a few designs like this. Im thinking some of the rubies also.
