Jewels: Diamond Bow Brooch

At Queen Elizabeth II's lying-in-state, Queen Mathilde wore this impressive and utterly gorgeous antique brooch for the first time. It's an early 20th century diamond bow in rococo style.

The brooch was sold at auction on 12 November 2019 at Christie's Switzerland for CHF 18,750 which is about EUR 20,200.

At the time it was described as: 

"Property of a Lady".
