“Ever the innovator when it came to jewellery, Queen Mary set Cullinans III and IV on to her 1911 coronation crown, later on to her Delhi Durbar Tiara, used them as pendants on her Coronation Necklaces and her Ladies of India emerald necklace and wore them as a brooch to numerous important family functions, including the wedding of the then Princess Elizabeth.
