Arcs of a Monarch
QUEEN ELIZABETH II
How could the princess imagine, in 1944, that the pair of Boucheron brilliant blue aquamarine and diamond clip brooches given to her on her 18th birthday by her father, King George VI, would become a queen's adornment just eight years later? Britain's longest-reigning monarch wore the pair throughout her life; now the French maison pays tribute with the Like a Queen collection inspired by the originals. Rings, earrings, brooches, necklaces, and even hair pieces sing of a father's doting gesture and a daughter's shimmering service.
