Royal Jewels

Enamel Maple Leaves Brooch - Princess Mary, The Duchess of Cornwall & York, later known as Queen Mary, was presented in 1901 by the ladies of Montreal during a tour, by her and her husband Prince George, Duke of Cornwall & York, of Canada. It is unknown if Queen Mary ever wore the brooch. Most thing this brooch made its first public appearance during on a Royal Canadian Tour in 2010. The brooch has not been worn publicly since. Which I think is a shame because it it is a lovel brooch.

The Royal Canadian Mint featured it on a commemorative $20 silver coin in 2018.

That is a beautiful brooch. The colors are delicate. It would look wonderful on Camilla or Catherine.

I fell in love with this brooch the first time I viewed on QEII. I really hope this piece gets to see the light of day more often.

It's truly beautiful, but it would look better on me.
