Beautiful! It just goes to show how a strand of pearls and a brooch can be timeless and investment pieces in a jewelry wardrobe.

Thanks for the photos..

She was so pretty when she was young!

Classic jewelry which will one day be worn by the Princess.

He was quite a nice looking young man in the day. Quite the dashing young couple. What a nice comparison photo between then and now.

What lovely photographs! They were such a beautiful couple when they were young and IMO, they still are. You can see the respect and love there.

I love that she wears her pieces over and over and lends them to the younger generation.

I assume she has some personal jewelry.

I actually remember well when she became queen. It was 1951 or '52, I believe. I didn't think of her as "young" then, LOL, because I was only about 12. Looking at this photo, she reminds me a lot of Ingrid Bergman.

The queen has her own jewelry apart form the ""Crown Jewels""

At first I couldnt get past the young face of the young Prince Philip or at least his profile to notice the Queens jewelry. I think that photo can put to rest any questions that Prince Harry IS INDEED Charles' son. Harry is a spittin image of at least Philips profile, what do you think?

Your point is taken tho Opurra! Yes the pearls and broch are timeless, nice photos both of them, thanks.

When I was a little girl I had Queen Elizabeth paper dolls. I thought she was beautiful.

Maybe this is why the British hang on to the monarchy. Consistency.
