A Harry Truman gift to his wife Bess:
Harry S. Truman: Personalized Gift to Bess Truman. Silver-on-gold locket in the shape of an egg, measuring .5" across by 1" tall, with suspension loop. It is hinged and opens to reveal two compartments. One side has "Harry" in script with inlaid diamond chips, while the other has a three-leaf clover with diamond chips. Unquestionably an early token of affection given from Harry to Bess Truman. Provenance: Doyle's Jewelry Sale, February 25, 2014, lot 564, Estate of Margaret Truman Daniel.

This was the other picture but as you can see it's not as clear. The other picture I'm still trying to find clear picture of her pearl necklace. :flowers:

pealr necklaces seem to be a staple for all First Ladies. Laura bush's citrine set is stunning!
This makes me want to get out my triple strand pearl necklace & start wearing it. Being a June baby, I love pearls & have many. :love:

I just love Laura Bush's Citrine set!!!! It looks so elegant on her!!:heart::heart::heart: The picture would have been perfect if not for the expression of her eyes. LOL
 
Wearing diamond stud earrings at Governors Ball
Melania *****

I love these earrings!! From what I found out after the inauguration, she's had these earrings for quite some time & has worn them before when attending different events with Donald. I can't find the carat weight but I would "assume" they're at least 4-5 carats. Melania does have some beautiful jewelry & even though she seems to be minimalist when it comes to accessories, I'm sure we will be seeing more of her private collection in the future.
 
What a great thread, thank you so much for starting it.
I'm another one that loves Laura Bushs' Citrine set.
I also love the way Jackie and Michelle wear their jewelry. Just the right pieces to enhance their look. Very elegant.
