Part of the Royal Collection, this Art Deco-style double clip brooch features an aquamarine and oval, baguette, and round-cut diamonds.

Purchased in London on July 31, 1937, by Queen Elizabeth's uncle, the Duke of Kent, it was given to her by her parents, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth the Mother, as a gift for her 18th birthday in 1944 and is currently in her possession.

The elegance of an item cherished over many years emanates. This royal brooch, crafted by top high jeweler Boucheron, will surely be treasured for many years to come.

We look forward to seeing this piece of jewelry worn on new occasions.
