The parure had no earrings at all when it was created, I believe, also not the stud-parts. Neither Queen Emma nor Queen Wilhelmina wore earrings.
Those are at least tasteful looking statement pieces and chunks of plastic or leprechaun beards attached!![]()

Maxima in statement pieces - the modern period rings like as a modern piece
Yes, they are distinctive and look great with the Chanel jacket.Those are at least tasteful looking statement pieces and chunks of plastic or leprechaun beards attached!
And the fact that it hadn't been seen on over 100 years made it even more of a surprise.Yes, a brilliant spot. Such a perfect piece to fasten the veil.
What a great find - Maxima surprises us again (its been too long!)A great find once again by modekoninginmaxima.
During the pope´s inauguration the Queen actually wore a forgotten ´tiara´ of pearls and diamonds.
The piece -perhaps better described as a haircomb- was a favourite of Wilhelmina in her younger years and usually had the pear shaped pearls of Amalia of Solms attached to them (now used for the Pavlovnik tiara of Anna Pavlovna).

Oh there are still several parts missing like the stomacher, but good to see that she now wears it together and doesn't mix the parts of the Mellerio and peacock ruby Parure with each other,Very lovely to see the whole parure.
Do they still have the stomacher?Oh there are still several parts missing like the stomacher, but good to see that she now wears it together and doesn't mix the parts of the Mellerio and peacock ruby Parure with each other,
They do. But the last time it was worn in its complete form was in the 1970s by Queen Juliana. Queen Máxima did wear elements of it. I gather it is too heavy for the fabrics used in the dresses today.Do they still have the stomacher?
Queen Maxima is the only one that always brings us bling. Lovely!
After thorough research, we came across a newspaper article from 1901, the wedding year of Queen Wilhelmina. A group of noblewomen gifted Wilhelmina a bracelet, consisting of "a large emerald, around which 18 diamonds are set." The jewelry was ordered from jeweler J.C. Burnier & Co. in The Haque
Lovely bracelet. I am surprised Maxima has not used it much previously, as it is very wearable.Another lovely discovery: Dutch royal jewels on instagram found out the origin of the diamond and emerald bracelet which was worn by the Queen in Prague.
