It's all about the bling!

There is something about planning a wedding that can make even the most down to earth and casual girl's start to dream about the bling!

I love diamonds and pearls!

The ROSBERY PEARLS They belonged to Hannah, Countess of Rosbery nee de Rothschild. She had a jewellery collection that was admired throughout all the Royal Courts in Europe during the second half of the XIX Century. This pearl and diamond bracelet, brooch and tiara are one of the finest pieces of Victorian jewellery ever made. In a private collection for the last 140 years they will probably be acquired by an important museum.

This pearl and diamond tiara, brooch, and bracelet is known as the Rosebery Pearls. They belonged to Hannah, Countess of Rosebery nee de Rothschild. She had a jewelery collection that was admired throughout all the Royal Courts in Europe during the second half of the Nineteenth Century.  





The tiara alone boasts 13 natural saltwater pearls - six button shaped ones ringed with diamonds and seven pear shaped pearls dangling from tear drop diamond surmounts.




The Rosebery Pearls where offered for auction at Christie's in London on June 8, 2011. The famous suite of jewels sold for  UK £1,738,500 or approximately 2.71640625 million U.S. dollars!
