See Every Piece of Royal Jewelry Queen Camilla Wore During the U.S. State Visit
Queen Camilla arrived in the United States this week with a carefully curated selection of jewelry, some as measures of sartorial diplomacy while others reflected royal history. From the Cartier Union Jack-Stars and Stripes brooch—originally presented to Queen Elizabeth by the mayor of New York in 1957—to the Kent amethyst necklace, each piece carried historical weight that reinforced the themes of the visit.
The choices reflected a tradition the British royal family has long practiced: using jewelry not merely as adornment but as a form of communication. With a state dinner at the White House, going to the U.S. Capitol Building, meetings with families of victims of September 11, and a visit to the New York Public Library all on the agenda, Camilla had no shortage of occasions to make her selections count.
Below, a recap of all the baubles that Queen Camilla brought across the Atlantic this week:
