Posted: 22 Jun 2019 12:00 AM PDT As a woman well aware that her every fashion choice will be scrutinised intensely, the Duchess of Sussex has become adept at making statements through her jewellery – from wearing the same African bracelet as Prince Harry to hint that they were dating to the necklace bearing the word 'Mummy' she chose when she was pregnant. So when Meghan wore an eternity ring at Trooping the Colour this month, during her first public appearance after the birth of baby Archie, it was clear it had a special significance. The bespoke diamond band designed by American jeweller Lorraine Schwartz, was given to her by her husband to celebrate their first wedding anniversary. The ring is the latest in an extraordinary collection of jewellery that Meghan has amassed in the past year, which has now been valued at a staggering £600,000. Meghan first wore this 18ct yellow gold eternity ring that marks her first wedding anniversary at Trooping the Colour. It was made for Prince Harry by Lorraine Schwartz who has also designed jewellery for a host of famous clients including Beyoncé and Angelina Jolie. It includes Princess Diana's £75,000 aquamarine ring that Meghan wore on her wedding day, £60,000 Cartier drop earrings, and a set of £4,275 pearl and diamond earrings which were a gift from the Queen. In fact, the 91-piece collection, which boasts seven necklaces, 23 bracelets, 26 rings and 35 pairs of earrings, is so significant that it eclipses that of her late mother-in-law. But while some items cost as much as a modest home in some parts of the country, Meghan is also a fan of more affordable jewellery, sporting many pieces that can be bought for under £100. Jeweller Grant Mobley, who valued some of Diana's heirlooms, told The Mail on Sunday: 'The Royal Family is one of the best examples of how diamond jewellery can stand the test of time, be passed down from generation to generation, and only grows in emotional and intrinsic value over the years.' Even the Duchess of Cambridge doesn't have such an impressive collection: she owns about 60 pieces of jewellery, including Diana's sapphire engagement ring worth an estimated £300,000, and her 'Saudi Suite' – a wedding gift from Crown Prince Fahd which contained a sapphire watch, earrings, bracelet, ring and necklace. One ring? No, FOUR... When one diamond ring isn't enough, wear four. Although Meghan appeared keen not to upstage Princess Eugenie at her October wedding, she attracted attention by flashing four rings on her right hand, worth a total of £9,000. The Pippa Small jewels – crafted from quartz crystals mined from New York state – were paired with a £2,200 diamond bracelet and £495 stud earrings by the same designer Meghan, too, has been gifted items from Diana's collection. On the first day of her and Harry's Australian tour last year, when they announced her pregnancy, the Duchess wore Diana's butterfly earrings and gold bracelet. A poignant message acknowledging her legacy would live on through her son and future grandchild. But away from costly heirlooms, Meghan has been seen in elegant high street brands such as Missoma, which is sold in John Lewis. She also stacks rings on every finger and piles on the bracelets. Mr Mobley believes that is one of the reasons Meghan's jewellery has become such a talking point. 'She often wears pieces that would be considered very attainable by the average person,' he explains. ...and three bracelets on their first trip to visit their dukedom of Sussex as a married couple, Meghan wore a £320 pavé diamond necklace by LA designer Adina Reyter, with other jewellery by Londoner Marisa Hordern, who owns the Missoma brand. She teamed three Missoma bracelets, worth £70, £75 and £80, with a £79 signet ring She even makes brass chic visiting Morocco in February, the Duchess showcased French firm Gas Bijoux, also a favourite of France's First Lady, Brigitte Macron. The extravagant £129 Gourmette earrings are made from 24ct gold-plated brass. The company was founded in 1969 by hip artist André Gas, who first sold his creations on St Tropez beach She is drawn, too, to lesser-known designers who share her ethical and humanitarian interests. One favourite is jeweller Pippa Small, who describes herself as an 'anthropologist, human rights activist and survival ambassador'. Both Prince Charles and Kate are also fans of the designer, who was made an MBE in 2013. Other favourites include Australian Natalie Marie, who uses a mixture of ethical and recycled materials, and Canadian brand Ecksand, that 'respects Mother Nature' by using recycled gold and conflict-free gems. Here, The Mail on Sunday shares the most dazzling gems in the Duchess's expanding jewellery box. A real favourite! Meghan has worn these £375 Adina Reyter earrings at least six times, most recently on a visit to Tonga in October, where they were teamed with a £1,400 Pippa Small triple-stone aquamarine necklace. Like Meghan, mother-of-three Reyter was born and raised in Los Angeles and became a designer after a career in advertising. She created her Three Diamond Amigos earrings from 0.15ct diamonds from India Pearls from Her Majesty: The £4,275 pearl and diamond earrings, which were given to her by the Queen, must be a favourite as they've appeared three times on public outings. The first was in June 2018, during an official visit to Cheshire with Her Majesty; then at the Wellchild Awards in September; finally for the Australasian tour last year, where Meghan wore them on arrival in Fiji Diana wore these earrings, worth an estimated £2,300, on a 1986 tour of Canada when Harry was a toddler. So when Meghan wore them on the first day of her and Harry's tour of Australia – to announce they themselves were to become parents – it seemed apt. She also wore the £122,500 engagement ring designed by Prince Harry and made by Royal jeweller Cleave and Company. A diplomatic diamond: When meeting the Prime Minister of New Zealand at an official reception, what better item to wear than a diamond pendant by a Kiwi jeweller? In fact, Meghan wore the £8,800 Tattoo Diamond necklace by Jessica McCormack three times on the trip. The piece is inspired by precious objects, including traditional Maori carvings. The Duchess also inherited a new piece for her collection when premier Jacinda Ardern gave her a pair of earrings by New Zealand pop-singer-turned-jewellery-designer Boh Runga For her evening wedding reception, Meghan wore Princess Diana's £75,000 square-cut aquamarine ring, which Harry gave to her as a wedding gift. She paired it with glittering £60,000 18ct gold Cartier drop earrings, boasting 19 round diamonds and ten rectangular stones |
Posted: 10 Apr 2019 12:00 AM PDT An upcycled handbag worth a staggering $6.7 million (£5.13 million) has just been unveiled in New York City. The pricey purse is made from materials that belonged to one hyper-wealthy woman, who decided to give her 'last season' items a new lease of life for Easter. The bag is embellished with almost 8,000 glittering diamonds set in platinum and 24 carat gold, and it fastens using a pair of $40,000 (£30,600) Cartier earrings. The egg segment is made from a genuine emu egg - from the world's second bird- which was reinforced with enamel made from blue diamond dust. The egg is encased with an asymmetrical nest of 24k gold, valued at $250k, and the interior is lined with a silk Hermès scarf. The most valuable gems on the exterior are three extremely rare three carat flawless pink diamonds, worth $1.9 million (£1.45 million) and two flawless white diamonds valued at $265k (£202,000). The opulent item is the creation of British designer Debbie Wingham, 37, who is famed for creating a series of 'world's most expensive' items for billionaires in Dubai and beyond. Designer to the billionaires Debbie Wingham unveiled an upcycled designer bag in New York this week, which is made from a real emu egg encased in 24k gold and featuring Cartier jewellery, 8000 diamonds and a Hermes scarf All of the items I used to make the purse were upcycled from the client who commissioned it,' said Debbie, who named the bag 'Reborn' for that reason. 'I never thought I'd ever put 'upcycling' and 'world's most expensive' in the same sentence but here we are. 'It's my most unique piece yet…the highlight for me was using Cartier jewellery as an embellishment'. Italian designer Alessandro Galanti created the gold shell for the emu egg, which is an 'extremely tricky process' according to Debbie, because the egg is so fragile. The egg is encased with an asymmetrical nest of 24k gold, valued at $250k, and the interior is lined with a silk Hermès scarf, picture The most valuable gems on the exterior are three extremely rare three carat flawless pink diamonds, worth $1.9 million (£1.45 million) and two flawless white diamonds valued at $265k (£202,000), seeen 'He thought I was crazy at first, but in the end I got him to agree to the project and he managed to perfect it first time, without breaking any emu eggs,' she said. 'After I'd completed the design, the bag took three months to make.' Debbie unveiled the purse on Tuesday on The Wendy Williams Show in the US, before delivering it to her mega rich client in Manhattan. 'I can't reveal my client's name for security reasons, but she's from New York and her family originates from Barbados,' said Debbie, a mom-of-three. 'Most of my clients chose to remain anonymous for obvious reasons,' she added. 'This client has a lot of wonderful, luxurious things in her closet, things she said she would never wear again, so we decided to give them a new lease of life for Easter. 'I'm not sure if she'll ever wear the bag out, she may take it to the red carpet, or just keep it as an art piece.'

The Queen bans Meghan from wearing jewellery from Royal Collection - Daily Mail Posted: 04 Apr 2019 12:00 AM PDT The Royal family has hit back at claims the Queen 'banned' the Duchess of Sussex from wearing some of the priceless items from her own private collection. A palace insider reportedly claimed priceless items from Her Majesty's private collection, which are loaned at her discretion, 'would not be made available to Meghan.' But a Buckingham Palace insider rubbished the claims, telling MailOnline that the Queen still lends her jewellery to the Duchess of Sussex - including the headpiece she wore at her wedding in May. Meghan also wore a pair of pearl earrings gifted to her by the Queen during her first joint engagement with the monarch last June. The Queen, pictured with Meghan and Harry in June 2018, has reportedly banned Meghan from wearing certain items from the her personal collection On her wedding day, Meghan Markle wore a diamond tiara belonging to the Queen's grandmother Queen Mary (left). The Queen Mary's Diamond Bandeau was designer for Queen Mary (right). It was specifically made for the Queen's grandmother Queen Mary in 1932 to accommodate the detachable brooch, which was given to Mary as a wedding present in 1893 by the County of Lincoln. It is one of the items from the Queen's private collection The Duke and Duchess of Sussex after their wedding at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle on May 19, 2018 Left, Princess Diana wearing The Queen Mary Tiara in New Zealand during April 1983 and right, The Duchess of Cambridge wearing the tiara at Buckingham Palace in December 2018. The tiara is another of the items from the Queen's private collection The Royal Collection is held in trust by the Sovereign for her successors and the nation, and is not owned by The Queen as a private individual. But the Queen does own a number of items - including a glittering array of crowns, tiaras, necklaces and earrings - which remain her private property and are kept in her own collection. She loans them out to members of the royal family for formal occasions and state visits, at her own discretion. Buckingham Palace was reported to have applied the stringent new rules to Meghan in a bid to 'maintain order, hierarchy and precedence' within the Royal Family. The move reportedly came after the Queen was left 'unimpressed by Meghan's demanding behaviour' ahead of her marriage to Prince Harry last year - during which he is reported to have told staff, 'What Meghan wants Meghan gets.' But a source for Buckingham Palace told MailOnline: 'It is worth noting that the Queen lent Meghan a tiara for the wedding, gave her earrings for her first royal engagement, and had just agreed to partly fund her new household. 'The jewellery in question is only usually worn at extremely special functions or state occasions and there simply haven't been many of those since Meghan became a member of the Royal Family.' The palace said the Duchess of Sussex had not attended any major or state events recently, which warranted wearing such items. A 'royal insider' had told The Sun: 'It is true that Buckingham Palace did not want all the items in the Royal Collection to be opened up to Meghan at this time. 'Obviously Kate as the next Princess of Wales and a senior member of the family does have them made available to her. 'That's not to say items won't be loaned to Meghan in the future if situations change.' Items reportedly 'banned' include the Bahrain Pearl Drop earrings - one of the items from the It is one of the items from the Queen's private collection (worn by the Queen in 2015, left and the Duchess of Cambridge in 2016, right). The Queen was given seven of the pearls from the ruler of Bahrain in 1947 The Duchess wore a pair of pearl earrings gifted to her by Her Majesty during her first joint engagement with the monarch last June (pictured) Last month, The Mail on Sunday revealed the Prince of Wales told the Duchess of Sussex not to wear a tiara to her first overseas state dinner, fearing it might look 'extravagant'. The Duchess had hoped to borrow a jewelled tiara from the Royal Collection for the event, but she was advised by her father-in-law that such ostentation is avoided in parts of the Commonwealth where it can be seen as reminiscent of a bygone era or 'extravagant'. A source said: 'Meghan did not understand all of this because she was new to the role and so Prince Charles told her that it would not be appropriate. 'It was very kindly done.' The absence of a tiara drew attention when Meghan, wearing a blue full-length gown by Safiyaa, arrived for the dinner hosted by the president of Fiji Jioji Konrote – not least because the Duchess of Cambridge wore a large diamond and pearl headpiece once owned by Princess Diana to a state banquet at Buckingham Palace on the same night. However Meghan did at the time wear a pair of diamond earrings that are thought to have been borrowed, possibly from the Royal Collection, which is the largest private collection of art in the world. Last year, Meghan and Harry's wedding preparations shaken by a dispute over another tiara. The former Suits actress had reportedly set her heart on an emerald encrusted headpiece, but her request was refused when the origin of the piece could not be established. When Harry heard this, he reportedly said, 'What Meghan wants, Meghan gets', prompting the Queen to intervene. At the time, a source was quoted as saying: 'There was a very heated exchange that prompted the Queen to speak to Harry. 'She said: 'Meghan cannot have whatever she wants. She gets what tiara she's given by me.'

Right, the Duchess of Cambridge wearing the necklace in 2014 Kate wore the Queen Mary Tiara for the annual Diplomatic Reception at Buckingham Palace in December 2016, left, and in 2015, right In the end, Meghan wore Queen Mary's diamond and platinum bandeau tiara from the Queen's private collection during the wedding ceremony at St George's Chapel in Windsor. Meghan picked the tiara from the Queen's collection during a visit to Buckingham Palace with Prince Harry, which she described as 'an incredibly surreal day'. Meghan and Prince Harry recorded their memories of the wedding for an audio commentary that is part of the 'Relive the Royal Wedding' exhibition at Windsor Castle. Speaking about the tiara she wore, Meghan said: 'When it came to the tiara on the day, I was very fortunate to be able to choose this gorgeous art deco style bandeau tiara. 'Harry and I had gone to Buckingham Palace to meet with Her Majesty The Queen to select one of the options that were there, which was an incredibly surreal day as you can imagine. 'And that was the one that, I think, as we tried them on, stood out.' Kensington Palace and Buckingham Palace have been approached for comment. |

Posted: 01 Jun 2018 12:00 AM PDT Meghan Markle owns a collection of jewels worth £1m including her £140,000 engagement ring Before meeting Prince Harry, Meghan Markle stuck to modest trinkets. Now she owns a collection of jewels worth £1m. This includes her stunning £140,000 engagement ring and a £241,000 Cartier bracelet. Other dazzling items include the £450,000 tiara borrowed from the Queen. A glittering set of £60,000 earrings she received as a pre-wedding gift also belong in her jaw dropping collection of jewels. Here's how Duchess of diamonds, Meghan Markle sparkles. ENGAGEMENT RING WITH DIANA'S JEWELS - £140,000 Personally designed by Harry and made by royal jeweller Cleave and Company, the Duchess's engagement sparkler is by far the most magnificent in her collection. Set on a gold band, the central diamond, believed to be around 3ct, was ethically sourced in Botswana — where the couple holidayed after only a few weeks of dating. The two round diamonds on either side come from a brooch that belonged to Harry's late mother, Princess Diana. In their blissfully happy engagement interview last November, Harry said the decision to incorporate Diana's stones would ensure that 'she's with us on this crazy journey together'. Leading jeweller David Marshall estimates the ring's value at £140,000 — but High Street store Argos sells a cut-price version, the 'Meghan Sparkle', for just £14.99.

YET ANOTHER GIFT FROM HER BESOTTED GROOM? £17,700 Adorning her wrist at her new father-in-law's birthday celebrations was this diamond tennis bracelet, believed to be another present from her Prince Charming. Although the exact make is unknown, it looks remarkably like the £17,700 Cartier Essential Lines bracelet, made from 18ct white gold and set with 61 brilliant-cut diamonds. If so, it would be a touching tribute to Diana, who adored Cartier jewellery and owned an almost identical piece. A PRECIOUS CARTIER BRACELET FOR THE BRIDE - £241,000 Against the splendour of her Givenchy gown, her Reflection de Cartier bracelet almost went unnoticed. Made from 18ct white gold and set with more than 100 diamonds, it is designed to 'create breathtaking radiance and light'. There are two versions of this bracelet, one costing a staggering £241,000 — but Meghan's may well have been bespoke.
