Focus on... Camilla's Jewels: Van Cleef & Arpels Dragonfly Brooches

One of my favourite jewels in Camilla’s collection are these beautiful dragonfly brooches.

Van Cleef & Arpels Dragonfly Brooches
They were created by Van Cleef & Arpels in their signature dragonfly theme, and were a gift from the Prince of Wales to his wife. 

The brooches, or rather clips, are made of white gold. One of them is studded with blue sapphires, the other – diamonds. They are designed as a tribute to the lightness and femininity of Nature.
