Queen Camilla looked stunning as she attended the races over the weekend but also she debuted a new piece of jewellery with a secret meaning behind it, according to a jewellery expert.
Queen Camilla had one secret message she was trying to communicate through her style choice during her latest appearance last weekend, according to an expert.
The Queen turned heads last Saturday as she stepped out in Berkshire to attend the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot Racecourse.
Camilla wore a white and blue Suzannah London dress with a straw hat and nude heels as she presented the first Royal Ascot trophy won by the French since 2006.
But it was her glamorous jewellery that stole the show as the royal debuted a new bracelet with a secret meaning, according to jewellery experts.
King Charles’s wife sported Van Cleef & Arpels’s – a jewellery brand she regularly favours – Perlee bracelet, which costs £29,700.
The stunning piece is crafted from 18-carat yellow gold and boasts 50 round cut sapphires. On the website, the brand says: “The natural beauty of the precious stones enters into a dialogue with the brilliance of the golden beads that border each piece.”
Now a jewellery expert suggested that the Queen’s latest style choice may have carried a special meaning behind it, as the royal has been stepping up amid her husband’s ongoing cancer treatment.
Maxwell Stone, of jeweller Steven Stone, said: “Queen Camilla’s new bracelet, identified as part of the Van Cleef & Arpels ‘Perlée’ collection, has one distinctive feature compared to the similar piece available online for nearly £30,000.
“Crafted from 18-carat yellow gold, the bracelet boasts three stripes adorned with stones. However, instead of diamonds, Queen Camilla’s bracelet appears to be set with round-cut sapphires, indicating it is a bespoke creation.”

“Sapphires, long associated with royalty, carry rich symbolism. Known for promoting emotional healing and inner peace, they are a particularly meaningful choice for Her Majesty, especially as she continues her duties with King Charles’ cancer diagnosis likely weighing on her mind.”
On Saturday, France won the stakes for the first time since 2006 with its horse Goliath and jockey Christophe Soumillon.

The Queen was photographed speaking with Goliath’s owner Baron Philip Von Ullmann as he held the golden trophy she had just presented him. She walked the lawns chatting with jockeys and attendees during the prestigious stakes that first ran in 1951.
Goliath had 25-1 odds and the race favourite Auguste Rodin finished fifth. Ascot describes the stakes as its “premier midsummer showpiece” and the horses race over a mile and a half.
