| This diamond leaf brooch with a large pearl and drop pearl pendant once belonged to Queen Sophie. A young Queen Wilhelmina has been photographed with the brooch on her bodice. Then after many years the brooch surfaced in the 1960's. First worn by Princess Margriet and in 1966 by Princess Beatrix on her wedding day. Since then the brooch has worn very frequently. In recent years, Princess Maxima has also been seen wearing this brooch. The diamond leaf brooch can be worn in different ways: upside-down, with and without the drop pearl pendant, as a brooch or as a devant de corsage. |
