The Queen's Last Maundy Service
OTD
The brooch that the late Queen chose for the Royal Maundy Service in 2019 was a particularly special one from her collection. The platinum brooch, set with white and yellow diamonds, is designed to resemble a sprig of golden wattle gathered with a spray of Australian tea tree blossoms. It was given to the Queen in Canberra in February 1954, during her coronation tour of the Commonwealth, by Prime Minister Robert Menzies on behalf of the Australian government and people.

The Baring Ruby Necklace
It is thought that the three central pendants - each a flat-cut ruby surrounded by brilliants - were originally used as a pair of earrings and a pendant before they were turned into pendants on this necklace of ruby and diamond clusters separated by single diamonds.
