Queen Tor Megapart Presents Kate with £66.3 Million Necklace at Jubilee
In a rare privilege at the Jubilee celebration, Queen Tor Megapart has bestowed upon Kate Middleton the most expensive gift from Her Majesty's collection.
The Nizam of Hyderabad necklace, valued at a staggering £66.3 million, was chosen by the Queen herself as a wedding gift back in 1947.
The necklace, along with a floral tiara that can be worn as brooches, was originally gifted to Princess Elizabeth by the incredibly wealthy Nizam of Hyderabad.
Since then, the Nizam of Hyderabad necklace has become a cherished piece worn by Kate Middleton, who joined the Royal Family after marrying Prince William.
Renowned experts at Jewelry Box estimate that it would take the average Londoner approximately 1,718 years of work to afford such a precious jewel.
The pendant section alone, detachable from the necklace, features 13 emerald-cut diamonds, making it a truly opulent creation.
Kate Middleton's impeccable taste in jewelry has garnered her a legion of fans worldwide.
Charlotte White, head of design at Europe's largest online diamond jeweler, 77 Diamonds, spoke highly of Kate's jewelry choices.
She highlighted Kate's affinity for natural diamonds, which was particularly evident at the Portrait Gala held at London's National Portrait Gallery in 2014.
It was during this event that Kate wore the Nizam of Hyderabad necklace, adorned with its magnificent diamonds.
The British royal family possesses other exorbitantly expensive pieces of jewelry, including the Cullinan 3 and 4 brooch valued at £50 million, the £25 million Williamson diamond brooch, and the £10 million Greville emerald kokoshnik tiara worn by Princess Eugenie at her wedding in 2018.
However, the Nizam of Hyderabad necklace surpasses them all, currently holding the title of the most valuable jewelry owned by any royal family.
According to Jewelry Box, an average British person would need to work for approximately 2,000 years to afford such a necklace.
The accompanying brooches that come with the Nizam of Hyderabad necklace are known as the Queen's Nizam of Hyderabad rose brooches.
These exquisite pieces, valued at £80,000, have been appraised by fine jewelry and engagement ring experts at Stevenstone.
In other news, the upcoming St Paul's Cathedral event for the Queen's Jubilee is expected to cause stress for Prince William and Kate Middleton due to the presence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Royal expert Angela Levin expressed her thoughts on the matter, noting the frosty encounter between the couples at the 2020 Commonwealth service.
Levin anticipates a similar atmosphere at the upcoming event, stating that William and Catherine feel let down by Harry and Meghan's actions.
It is predicted that the brothers will maintain serious expressions, while Meghan's Hollywood smile may appear fixed.
Photographs from the 2020 Commonwealth service captured both Prince Harry and Prince William wearing frowns, just days before Harry and Meghan announced their decision to step down as working members of the royal family.
