Thank you for your valuable comments...Hello Bobby! Thank you for your valuable comments. <br /><br />1. As I had started earlier, by saying "Princess Marina left a certain piece to Princess Michael, I obviously mean Marina left the jewel to her son whose wife now wears them. It's just simpler to say the former than the latter. <br /><br />This said, to avoid any confusions in future, I shall soon amend the articles to make the transaction bit a bit clearer. <br /><br />2. The answer to both questions is from Cartier archives (which I had been honoured to have partial access to some time ago). That Prince George gave them to his wife is a logical conclusion. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15531849150686884065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6289202327412336236.post-86765192295241464492013-03-01T05:27:29.560+04:002013-03-01T05:27:29.560+04:00Not a bad article per se.

I cant refrain from making two comments, though:<br />1) On more than one occasion (in other articles, as well) you mention that Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent left a certain jewel to Princess Michael. This is simply not possible as Princess Marina passed away in 1968 and Marie Christine von Reibnitz didn't marry Prince Micahel untill 1978, 10 years later. I guess you understand that the two ladies most probably didn't even know each other ;) The jewels were left to Prince Michael, who either loanes them (technically) or has given them to his wife ;)<br />2)Princess Marina's sapphire clips are among my favs and I've tried to find more information about them without much luck. Where did you read that they were made in 1931 and bought by Prince George in the late 1930s?<br /><br />Best,<br />BobbyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
