8 September 2022 was the day of Queen Elizabeth’s death. She was 96 years old and reigned for 70 years.
The jewelry of Queen Elizabeth, according to Leslie Field, included 14 tiaras, 34 pairs of earrings, 98 brooches, 46 necklaces, 37 bracelets, 14 watches, and 15 rings. That is a lot of pieces, even for a Queen.
Most are heirlooms, given as gifts, and cannot be sold because they are part of The Crown.
Queen Elizabeth brooches
The most unique pieces of Queen Elizabeth’s jewelry collection are undoubtedly the Cullivan III, IV, and V brooches.

Final thoughts
King Charles is the new King of England now. His name will be King Charles III.
Will he be as successful as Queen Elizabeth? We do not know.
The good news is that neither the Queen nor the King does not play any political or executive role in the British government.
King Charles’s second wife, Camila, will be queen consort instead of princess consort.
Anyway. The Queen is dead, Long live the King
