Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother's original ring was a sapphire sourced from the Yogo Sapphire Mine in the state of Montana, U.S.A.. Large stones are rare and noted for their cornflower blue colour with no inclusions. The Royal Family owned a stake in the mine and cigar boxes of stones were regularly sent to the monarchy in cigar boxes by regular post worth thousands of pounds. The Yogo mine was eventually mined out, so her stone is one of the rarest of sapphires because of its size, colour, clarity, and rarity.
While the rings are undoubtedly made from beautiful gems, none of them shows much imagination. All are rather ordinary, with a central stone surrounded by smaller stones. I could design something similar and no one would think it extraordinary. As for the criticism of Diana's ring, if they didn't want her to have a ring from a catalogue, they shouldn't have offered it to her in that context. It is striking rather than beautiful, being, once again, just a central stone surrounded by a bunch of smaller ones.
I am struck by the fact that Charles alone seems to have put no effort into the design of Diana’s wedding ring. Can you imagine how she must have felt being handed a catalog and told to pick out her own. It lends credence to her story that she just chose the most expensive one. Poor girl, getting married with her heart already broken. Would that her sisters had supported her when she wanted to back out. But then we wouldn’t have William, who is her true legacy.
I was thinking the same thing. The other rings had some thought and effort, hers had none above just being told to 'pick out your own' with the underlying thought 'I don't really care'.
After learning a lot more about Diana, I think Charles did the right thing p, imagine the tantrum if she hadn’t liked it!! It wasn’t picked from a catalogue, the jeweller took many rings to the palace.
Me too. Some years aback I got for my wedding anniversary an emerald shaped aquamarine ring surrounded by sapphires in a halo setting with also 2 small diamonds on the band. I call it my Diana ring as it has aspects of both of her 2 most famous rings. Of course mine is much smaller, lol! but I love it.
in my opinion it was right that Princess Catherine to have her late mother-in-law's engagement ring !!! going from one Princess of Wales to another!! it makes sense!!!! & harry didn't get overlooked since he got the diamonds from his mom for his wife's engagement ring!!! but unfortunately things aren't that easy when jealousy & greed gets in the way!!!!
Harry said he never had the ring or the watch. It is a media lie. Meghan's watch she has is actually a Rolex that looks similar to Diana's watch (which was a different brand) that Meghan bought with her first Suits paycheck. Meghan talked about her watch on her Tig blog way before she met Harry. She said the watch was something she had always wanted but could only afford after she landed Suits. Meghan recommended being minimalist not buying a lot, but buying the best quality a person could afford in her blog. for example, she recommended having one high quality timeless in style black dress that could be dressed up or down and made to look different. That is why she was worth 5 million when she married Harry. She did not overspend. Harry also said the side diamonds came from one of Diana's tennis bracelets that he inherited. He said he got Wiliam's permission to remove a link. Meghan occasionally wears the bracelet for formal events. Being she is 3 inches shorter than Diana was it fits her with the link removed. We also know Harry inherited Diana's aquamarine ring which we have seen Meghan wear 3 times in the last 6 years. People Forget most of Diana's jewelry was owned by the Crown and only hers for life. So, it makes sense William inherited the engagement ring and watch while Harry inherited the tennis bracelet, and aquamarine ring given to Diana after her divorce. There were also smaller less valuable pieces of Diana's we have seen Meghan wear. Some butterfly earrings with tiny sapphires and a turquoise ring. both of them are of modest value, or at least would be if they had not been owned by Diana. I am sure Kate inherited similar items, but they are not things she would wear to state events. they want her to wear the Crown jewelry for those. Those would be things she would wear in private. I understand the aquamarine ring has a matching bracelet and earrings Diana never wore as they were not finished before her death. I am not sure who has them as we have not seen Kate or Meghan wear them. Maybe one day Charlotte will get those.
American actres?! WTF?! Wallis was never an actres.
😂she was the role model for gold digger
Wallis was a "hostess" in a Chinese brothel. Read King of Fools.

Aren't those sapphires more of a teal color? They are very beautiful and very expensive even in small stones.
Hi! Genuinely happy to narrate these for you and correctly pronounce them. Let me know.
The rings in a lot of these cases are not shown clearly or up-close. Very frustrating for anyone who wants to know more about jewelry.
how close do you think people can get to a ROYAL engagement ring?
@@kajhaelynn As close as they get with all the other pictures that you can Google and see easily i.e. very.
AI is ridiculous. So many mistakes. Please stop.
LoL 😆 hahaha hahaha
Dreadful Ai generated narration with many errors in pronunciation.
Really!!! Fergee? There are so many of these new sites....
Interesting but spoilt by the mispronunciation of so many words.
Meghan Markle was an actress, Wallis Simpson was NOT
"X" doesn't stand for "by" but is the Roman numeral "X" = 10 or the tenth month, October.
R.I.P Queen Victoria & Prince Albert.
I wear a sapphire engagement ring.... Very interesting.❤
Princess Ann engagement ring looks like my truest birth stone ring is very nice and I loss it.
Ai is horrible. So many mistakes and mispronounced words. But still interesting .
I have what I call a petite version of Diana's ring. I got it not long after Diana debut hers. I wear it every chance I get, but on my right hand.
Wow so much wrong in this
Where is queen Mary's engagement ring?
nothing is known about her first or second engagement ring
This is so bad. Please stop. 10:39
The one was QE2 ring because it came from the heart ❤
Many of them did.
QE2 is a ship.

If they cant talk properly and get the names correct then do it without speaking

It is said that she asked which was the most expensive and chose that one.
Thanks Heavens Diana's ring did NOT end up on Megan's finger!
Perché m non l'ha avrà voluto forse perché pensava che le portasse sfortuna
Is this video narrated by a real person?
No, it's AI.
I like ❤️💜💚 aqua marine.

I don't know if they still have it, but it came from Ross Simons.
❤❤❤❤❤amen
Thanks all for saving me the time!
I wonder who has the older rings now?
in my opinion it was right that Princess Catherine to have her late mother-in-law's engagement ring !!! going from one Princess of Wales to another!! it makes sense!!!! & harry didn't get overlooked since he got the diamonds from his mom for his wife's engagement ring!!! but unfortunately things aren't that easy when jealousy & greed gets in the way!!!!
Πολύ ομορφο❤❤❤
Queen Mary??
Yes, exactly what I thought. Where's Queen Mary?!

Do you know what happened to the Queen Mothers' saphire ring ?
🍀
Can we all just be grateful that Diana's rung is not sitting on Schmegan's finger
Princes Margaret was forced to give up the love of her life because he was a divorcee and so princess Margaret was not allowed to marry for love.
She could have married him but she was not willing to give up her title and perks as a princess.
Where's Queen Mary.
Im sorry but in what world does Princess Beatrices engagement ring have ANY significance to harolds wife?
Who is Harold? Prince Harry's real name is Henry
That was not Margaret's ring
Gifted? Prince Hairy? There's so much wrong with the narration of this video.
