Queen Margrethe II's impressive jewelry box is shown to the public
Denmark lives days of celebration. Friday marked 50 years since Queen Margaret II sat on the throne. Initially, several commemorative activities were planned, but the health situation has forced some to be cancelled.
Yes, an act has been organized at the Christiansborg Palace or a mass in honor of the monarch's parents, Kings Federico and Ingrid. Although one of the most outstanding has been the opening of an exhibition on the royal jeweler, which can be visited until October in one of the Amalienborg mansions.
Entitled 'A queen's jewelry box: 50 years on the throne told in jewelry', in it we can enjoy more than 200 pieces with very curious stories that are narrated by Margarita II herself in the audio guides that are given to tourists. Among the jewels, we find the parure of hanging pearls and diamonds, the brooch whose one of its pearls mysteriously disappeared on his state trip to Germany, another ruby brooch that King Frederick gave him when he approved the law that allowed women to reign in Denmark or one of her favorite pieces, the Daisy brooch, which belonged to Queen Ingrid and which Margarita II wore at her wedding.

However, one of the most striking is -another- triangle-shaped diamond brooch surrounding a white pearl and with another pink pendant that the monarch gave in 2007 to her eldest granddaughter, Princess Isabella, for the baptism of her The jewel is a great unknown because Margarita II has hardly even taken it out of the jeweler, unlike her grandmother, Queen Alexandrina, who wore it regularly at the beginning of the 20th century.
Isabella, surely because of her youth (she is 14 years old), has only worn it on one occasion: on the 50th birthday of her uncle, Prince Joaquin.
