| This large oval diamond and sapphire pendant or brooch was an engagement or wedding present which Queen Emma received from King Willem III in 1879. It was long thought that it belonged to Queen Emma's Mellerio Sapphire parure because both Queen Emma and Queen Juliana have frequently worn the brooch as a pendant on the necklace from the Mellerio Sapphire Parure. Queen Emma did in fact wear it as a brooch or pendant when she was younger. Queen Beatrix has been wearing this piece for many years. |
