The Personal Jewel Collection of Elizabeth II
The Queen's Jewels (or the King's Jewels, when the monarch is male) are a historic collection of jewels owned personally by the monarch of the Commonwealth realms; currently Queen Elizabeth II. The jewels are separate from the British Crown Jewels. The origin of a royal jewel collection distinct from the official crown jewels is vague, though it is thought that the jewels have their origin somewhere in the sixteenth century. Many of the pieces are from far away lands and were brought back to the United Kingdom as a result of civil war, coups and revolutions, or acquired as gifts to the monarch.
The official Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom are worn only at coronations (St. Edward's Crown being used to crown the monarch) and the State Opening of Parliament (the Imperial State Crown). On other formal occasions tiaras are worn. When the Queen goes abroad, she wears a tiara from her personal collection at formal events.
==Value==
Sales of jewellery from the estate of the late Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon fetched higher than expected prices due to their royal connection.
