Women are born collectors of jewelry. In the Queen's treasure chest, all kinds of jewelry are even more enviable. Most of her jewels, including so many crowns, were entrusted to her ancestors and passed down from generation to generation.
But there was a brooch that was very special, which the queen gave away and was given back.
It was a rose brooch she had made on her mother, Queen Elizabeth, on her 100th birthday.
Queen Elizabeth lived to be 102 years old, and it seems that the longevity of the Queen's family is also inherited.
This old lady, who experienced World War I and World War II, used her courage and tenacity to save the image of the crumbling British royal family and regain its majesty.
On 19 August 2000, the United Kingdom celebrated Queen Elizabeth's 100th birthday celebration in its largest ever event.
As a daughter, the Queen of England naturally has to show her heart.
The 74-year-old Queen and her 70-year-old sister Princess Margaret gave a childlike gift, re-recording the nursery rhymes that their mother had sung to them as children.
This trick really pleased the old mother, and the empress dowager listened to the music.
People say that old children, it seems that noble as the queen and queen of the British royal family, are also difficult to "avoid vulgarity".
Of course, this is just an appetizer. Empress Wang's favorite is jewelry, and every time she appears in public, she has to take a good look, necklaces, brooches, and crowns.
The Queen's finale gift was a brooch set with 100 diamonds, and a red rose painted by hand on the oval crystal in the middle.
The top of the brooch also has a playful bow, which makes this brooch a little more flexible.
This rose is also very meaningful, and its prototype is a large flower rose cultivated to commemorate the crowning of the queen.
In 1953, Elizabeth II was crowned, although she became the rose of the whole of England, but the mother who taught her to face all kinds of troubles from an early age was the eternal English rose in her heart.
On April 26, 1923, Elizabeth, who did not want to have anything to do with the royal family, was eventually married by the second prince of George V, a handsome and sickly husband who stuttered.
Fortunately, he did not have to govern the country, but only took his family to live a leisurely life in his castle.
Who knows that history did not spare him, nor did elizabeth, and the second prince eventually became George VI because of his brother who evaded responsibility.
From the day Elizabeth became queen, she never shied away from responsibility, especially during the war.
Although her daughters Elizabeth and Margaret are still young, she is also determined to let the children be with her.
She, on the other hand, firmly guarded the king and was with the whole country.
Although she did not go to the front of the stage, the queen behind the scenes has always encouraged the somewhat timid king, and has taught her daughter the best example by example, and Elizabeth has thrown herself into the defense of the country at a young age, which is influenced by her mother.
The scarf does not let the eyebrows be shaved, that is, the person like Queen Elizabeth. She was tough enough to be called "the most dangerous woman in Europe".
After the Queen's coronation, Queen Elizabeth still works for the country, visits abroad with her daughter, and organizes and sponsors various activities, and you will find that the Queen's life is quite her mother's style.
Not only in handling affairs, but also in dressing and the love of jewelry, the Queen was influenced by Queen Elizabeth.
The Empress Wang's favorite three-ring pearl necklace is also the most worn jewelry by the queen.
Both mother and daughter are hat controllers, and their costume designers were also the same person. Even in old age, I like to wear more colorful clothes.
Unlike the self-disciplined queen, the queen queen is a fashionable old lady who smokes, drinks, and loves to dance. There is also a preference for spending lavishly.
The queen likes to ride horses, and the queen queen likes to buy horses. When the bill for the queen's purchase of the horse was handed to the queen, the queen did not forget to exclaim helplessly after signing the bill, "Oh, my dear mother." Complaining, too, is that kind of intimacy.
For jewelry, Empress Wang also played "Lai" with her daughter, who was the queen.
When her husband George VI died and her daughter ascended the throne as the new king, it was customary that jewelry that was not the queen's personal property needed to be returned to the royal family.
However, empress dowager Wang secretly withheld a crown of oriental rings.
This was handed down by Queen Victoria and was very popular with the Queen, who wore it the most times.
The filial daughter did not expose her mother's careful thoughts, and even defended her mother, explaining to those who disagreed that her mother would return it.
Yes, when the 102-year-old man died in 2002, she passed all the jewelry to her daughter.
Not only the crown she loved the most, but also the rose brooch that her daughter gave her on her 100th birthday.
I think that at the beginning, on her 101st birthday, Empress Wang also deliberately put on this brooch to watch the performance of the ballet. Who knows, in 2002, it became a bequest of the mother and returned to the queen's hands.
On Christmas Day 2002, the Queen wore a special gift from her mother in her holiday speech, and a picture of her mother was placed on the table.
Nostalgia is beyond words.
A brooch representing the love between mother and daughter, and a shell brooch.
This is a brooch composed of a giant pearl and a shell set with platinum diamonds, with diamond tassels underneath, which is very elegant and noble.
It was the empress's personal ornament, and the queen wore it on many important occasions, at least no less than 20 times.
At the memorial service of the Queen Wang and later at the unveiling ceremony of the statue of the Queen Wang, the Queen wore it in honor of her mother.
Members of the British royal family often borrowed various jewelry accessories from the queen, and even Camilla was able to borrow the honeycomb crown from the queen's private collection, and even later became her exclusive crown.
However, only this rose brooch, the queen never borrowed, except for the occasion she wore it herself. It became the medium of the psychic connection between the Queen and her mother.
