Balkan Royal Jewels - The Yugoslavian Emeralds - Queen Marie of Yugoslavia

In 1923, Queen Marie sent the original necklace, brooch and stomacher to Cartier to be remade. Using seven of the original large Emerald cabochons, the large stone of the stomacher and ten of the Emerald drops, the jewellers created an imposing Sautoir in the 1920’s style. Combining the new necklace with the original Bolin Tiara, the Emeralds became Marie’s jewels of choice and she was photographed and painted with them numerous times.
