Queen Camilla attended the Wimbledon quarterfinals on July 8 in an icy blue Anna Valentine chiffon dress\u2014the same one she\u2019d worn to Royal Ascot three weeks earlier\u2014but the jewelry she paired with it was more notable than the recycled outfit.<\/p>\n
Camilla wore a custom gold pendant necklace featuring a ruby, her birthstone, surrounded by five engraved initials: L, F, G, L, E\u2014for her grandchildren Lola, Freddy, Gus, Louis, and Eliza (all from her first marriage, to Andrew Parker Bowles).\u00a0The queen\u2014who was attending Wimbledon for the fourth consecutive year and sat alongside her sister, Annabel Elliot\u2014layered the pendant necklace over a chunkier yellow gold chain. A pair of turquoise and diamond earrings that King Charles gave her in 2005, before their marriage, completed her jewelry look.<\/p>\n
The engraved pendant has become one of Camilla\u2019s most consistently worn pieces this year, appearing at a St. James\u2019s Palace reception in February, a royal visit to Northern Ireland in May, a state visit to the Vatican, and now Wimbledon. Its maker has not been publicly identified, which is unusual for royal jewelry that attracts this level of attention, and only adds to the piece\u2019s intimacy.<\/p>\n
While it\u2019s \u201cperhaps the Queen\u2019s most personal piece of jewelry,\u201d as British society magazine Tatler has called<\/a> it, this is neither a historic diamond nor a borrowed-from-the-vault jewel. It\u2019s a custom keepsake, the kind of thing that anyone with grandchildren might commission.<\/p>\n It also lands at an interesting cultural moment. Royal jewelry watchers spent the past week parsing<\/a> Kate Middleton\u2019s $170 lapis earrings at Wimbledon and a friendship bracelet she wore in the Three Peaks Challenge that might have been handmade by her daughter, Charlotte. The throughline between both royals so far this summer is the same: Jewelry that generates the most conversation isn\u2019t necessarily the most valuable, it\u2019s the most personal.<\/p>\n Top: Queen Camilla on Day 10 of the 2026 Wimbledon Championships (photo: Andrew Matthews\/PA Wire)<\/p>\n Follow me on Instagram:\u00a0@anniedavidsonwatson<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t
