As wife of the Heir to the Throne, the Duchess of
Cornwall has access to most of the jewels in the royal vaults. Yet her own
jewellery collection is no less impressive; there are many beautiful gems Camilla
has inherited from her family and has regularly worn since her marriage to the
Prince of Wales.

The Duchess of Cornwall's Pansy Brooches |
One of those pieces is a pair of pansy brooches the
Duchess has worn pretty regularly since her marriage. As with many pieces from
her personal collection, there is no definite information on the provenance of this
pair as well, however it is virtually certain to be a family heirloom.
Set in 14k yellow gold, colouration is realized in a palette of deep purple and vivid yellow enamel. The brooches have clear rhinestones all around
the edge of each petal, with a single pearl nested in the centre, in a small
spot of yellow.
