Queen Mary's Turquoise Parures
There were two turquoise parures assembled by Queen Mary; one was worn by Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon and the other was given to the late Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester.
The current Queen does not own the parures and they will continue to be passed down to subsequent family members or, like Princess Margaret, be sold at an auction.

“The horror of that moment, the King went on, I shall never, never forget!
You will, though, the Queen said, if you dont make a memorandum of it.”
