Royal Jewels – Queen Elizabeth II’s Wedding Bracelet

Queen Elizabeth II’s wedding bracelet was a gift to the then Princess Elizabeth from her future husband, the Duke of Edinburgh.

Like her engagement ring, it was designed and made by Philip Antrobus using the stones taken from a tiara belonging to Prince Alice of Battenberg, the Duke’s mother.

The bracelet is “in the form of three stepped millegrain and pavé-set links, each centred by an old brilliant in rub-over setting.”1

The bracelet has also been worn by the Duchess of Cambridge, now the Princess of Wales.

The Grand Ducal Palace Luxembourg – The official residence

The Grand Ducal Palace in Luxembourg dates from 1574, when it was built to replace the city’s town hall that had been destroyed by a gunpowder explosion. The famous stone balustrade dates from 1741. It was enlarged several times, first by the addition of the Salle de la Balance on the right side and then in 1890 when the Chamber of Deputies was built on the other side.

The building became the official residence of the grand ducal family in 1890, but they only use it for work purposes.

Empress Dowager Xiaojing – The Wanli Emperor’s greatest shame

Empress Dowager Xiaojing was truly one of the most pitiful empresses of the Ming dynasty. She was originally a palace maid who happened to catch the eye of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty (also known as the Wanli Emperor). Because of her lowly status, she quickly became Emperor Shenzong’s greatest shame and embarrassment.[1] He would treat her cruelly for the rest of her life. Despite her husband’s abuse and neglect, she became the mother and grandmother of Ming dynasty emperors.

On 27 February 1565 C.E., Empress Dowager Xiaojing was born in Beizhili in Xin’an District (modern-day Hebei Province).[2] She was from a commoner family named the Wangs. In 1578 C.E., she became a palace maid to Empress Dowager Xiaoding.[3] One day when the eighteen-year-old Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty was visiting his mother’s palace, he asked for a basin of water to wash his hands.[4] Maid Wang brought him the basin.[5] Maid Wang was older than him but was very pretty.[6] He liked her immediately and favoured her.[7] He rewarded her services with a hair ornament.[8]

Even though Emperor Shenzong was still having intimate relations with Maid Wang, he was deeply ashamed of their liaisons because she was only a palace maid.[9] He wanted to keep their relationship secret.[10] When Maid Wang became pregnant, Emperor Shenzong refused to acknowledge that he had any intimate relations with her.[11] When Empress Dowager Xiaoding confronted her son with the records of the exact date of his intimacy with Maid Wang, Emperor Shenzong was so embarrassed that he “blushed.”[12] The news of their liaisons became known to the public.[13]

Empress Dowager Xiaoding promoted Maid Wang to Obedient Consort and moved her into Jingyang Palace.[14] On 28 August 1582 C.E., Consort Wang gave birth to a son named Zhu Changluo (the future Emperor Taichang of the Ming Dynasty). However, Emperor Shenzong did not acknowledge his son.[15] He did not even honour her by promoting her.[16] In 1584 C.E., Consort Wang gave birth to his fourth daughter, Princess Yunmeng.[17] After the birth of her daughter, Emperor Shengzong ignored her and confined her to her own palace.[18] She spent the rest of her life in confinement.[19] Emperor Shenzong bestowed all his affections and love on his favourite consort, Zheng Guifei.[20]

In 1586 C.E., Zheng Guifei gave birth to his third son, Zhu Changxun. Emperor Shenzong wanted to make Zheng Guifei’s son the next emperor.[21] However, it was tradition for the emperor’s eldest son to inherit the kingdom.[22] Emperor Shengzong fought for fifteen years to make Zhu Changxun the Crown Prince.[23] However, he was met with stern opposition from his ministers.[24] At last, he gave way and made Consort Wang’s son, Zhu Changluo, the Crown Prince.[25] Even after he named Zhu Changluo the Crown Prince, Emperor Shenzong did not even bother to promote Consort Wang.[26] It was not until the birth of her grandson in 1606 C.E. that Emperor Shenzong finally honoured her by promoting her to the rank of Imperial Honoured Consort.[27] Imperial Honoured Consort Wang continued to be neglected, and she often spent her days crying.[28] It was said that she cried so much that she became blind.[29]

In 1611 C.E., Imperial Honored Consort Wang fell ill. Her son, Zhu Changluo, went to see her and discovered that the doors to her palace were locked.[30] He had to find someone to get the keys so he could visit her.[31] Imperial Honoured Consort Wang’s last words to her son were, “You’ve grown up now. I will die of no regrets.”[32] On 18 October 1611 C.E., Imperial Honoured Consort Wang died. In 1620 C. E., Zhu Changluo ascended the throne as Emperor Taichang. However, he died one month after his enthronement.[33] His son, Zhu Youjiao, ascended the throne as Emperor Xizong of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Xizong made his grandmother the posthumous Empress Dowager Xiaojing.[34] He also reburied her in the Dingling Mausoleum next to Emperor Shenzong.[35]

Ever since Empress Dowager Xiaojing met Emperor Shenzong, her life was mostly unhappy. She spent thirty miserable years in neglect and confinement. As the mother of the heir apparent, she did not receive any privileges at all. Instead, she was mistreated by her husband, who saw her only as an embarrassment. It was not until her death that she finally received the privileges that she was deprived of in life.

The Year of Empress Elisabeth – Sisi’s descendants (Part three)

Read part two here.

Empress Elisabeth of Austria and her husband Franz Joseph had four children, of which three survived to adulthood. These children all had children of their own, thus leaving a long line of descendants. Please note that this information is likely to be incomplete and that most, if not all, of the titles described below, have been, or are being, held in pretence.

Elisabeth’s youngest child was Archduchess Marie Valerie (1868-1924), who married Archduke Franz Salvator of Austria-Tuscany. They had ten children together, who are listed in bold.

Royal Jewels – Queen Elizabeth II’s Flame-lily Brooch

Queen Elizabeth II’s Flame-lily brooch was a present to the then Princess Elizabeth from schoolchildren in Southern Rhodesia (now known as Zimbabwe).

The schoolchildren had each donated a ticket (three old pence). The brooch was designed by Len Bell from the Salisbury (Harare) jeweller and then made by jeweller Eric H.S. Kippin, who had trained at Cartier. The stones came from De Beers and were set by H. Michel. The brooch was given to Princess Elizabeth during her parents’ tour of Southern Africa in 1947.

When she returned to London from Kenya five years later following the death of her father, the now Queen Elizabeth wore the brooch as she alighted from the plane. The following year, two similar brooches were presented to the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret for the Queen Mother’s first commonwealth tour. The brooch given to the Queen Mother was inherited by Queen Elizabeth II in 2002.1

Sisi’s descendants (Part two)

Read part one here.

Empress Elisabeth of Austria and her husband Franz Joseph had four children, of which three survived to adulthood. These children all had children of their own, thus leaving a long line of descendants. Please note that this information is likely to be incomplete and that most, if not all, of the titles described below, have been, or are being, held in pretence.

Elisabeth’s only son was Crown Prince Rudolf (1858-1889), who married Princess Stéphanie of Belgium. They had one daughter together, who is listed in bold.
