Episode Synopsis

Margaret Greville died on September 15, 1942. Her jewels collection was put in an inventory and appraised in the following weeks. Only one person would be able to keep such a collection intact. It was Queen Elizabeth, wife of King Georges VI. In 1947, the first Boucheron piece from the Greville collection made a timid appearance at the wedding of the princess, Elizabeth. At twenty-one, the future Queen was marrying one of her distant cousins, Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
