As well as being carried in the sceptre, the Great Star of Africa can be worn as a brooch – a style favoured by the wife of King George V, Queen Mary.
According to consumer intelligence tool Brandwatch, the Great Star of Africa was a big topic of discussion on Twitter on April 21 as the Queen celebrated her 96th birthday.
