Default Royalty & their Jewelry
I collect pictures of jewelry on past & present royalty so I thought some of you might like to see some of the eye-candy too. Please do share if you have some as well.

I'll start with The Queen of Iran at her Coronation. Crown was made by Van Cleef & Arpels & Iran Coronation Necklace:

Darya e Noor Diamond from the crown jewels of Iran:

A chest full of the most stunning strands of natural pearls, part of the crown jewels of Iran

Next Up Crowns from various countries:

Those are gorgeous! I used to love watching The Tudors TV show, I'd watch the first 2 seasons over and over b/c I was just obsessed with Anne Boleyn and I loved seeing certain costumes and jewels over and over. Here's a link to a site with screencaps of all the outfits and jewels and descriptions of everything and interviews with the costumers:

Empress Eugenie of France. She had the most amazing pearl jewelry and would wear strands of the most amazing, huge natural pearls.

Russian Crowns:

Princess Alexandra

Princess Noor of Jordan- So beautiful and wow the size of her pearl earrings.

Japster, thanks for the eye candy! Princess Alexandra is no longer a princess as she got divorced...and princess Alexandra of Greece has like 4 or 5 kids...I am addicted to not only looking at their jewelry but reading about their lives....I also like queen Rania of Jordan's style and jewelry...
