Queen Camilla of the U.K. styled special jewelry pieces, including a strand of pearls and special brooch, for the National Service of Remembrance Day in London on Sunday.
Joining distinguished members of the British royal family, the queen consort wore her signature four-strand pearl necklace with a diamond clasp and the Bugle Horn brooch for the occasion, honoring military personnel and servicemen and women.

The Bugle Horn brooch, presented to the queen consort by the Rifles upon her appointment as their Colonel in Chief, is crafted with 206 diamonds and three emeralds, according to Maxwell Stone of U.K. jeweler Steven Stone.
“Crowning the design is a miniature version of St Edward’s Crown, the historic piece originally created for Charles II in 1661 and used in every British coronation since,” Stone said in a statement to Crisscut Magazine. “The brooch reflects both the Queen’s deep connection to the regiment and the enduring traditions of the monarchy.”

Queen Camilla previously wore the brooch on another occasion honoring the U.K.’s military servicemen and women. For V.J. Day celebrations in August, the brooch adorned Queen Camilla’s white Dior ensemble.
Along with her Bugle Horn brooch, the queen consort styled her signature four-strand cultured peal necklace with a diamond clasp. The jewelry piece has been worn by the royal on several occasions, including D-Day commemorations in June 2024.

Steven Stone’s Maxwell Stone previously told WWD in December 2024 that “pearls are among the most resilient gemstones, capable of withstanding immense external pressures without breaking.” As such, the jewelry piece provides significant symbolism for strength, a testament to the servicemen and women honored as part of National Service of Remembrance Day.
