Bracelet with a clever twist

UNLIKE many of Diana’s precious gems, this pearl and aquamarine bracelet had longevity — she kept it in circulation for more than 14 years, between 198 and 1996, and wore it at least twice a year. The bracelet, believed to have been one of Diana’s many wedding gifts, had a clever secret: on the opposite side of the pearls to the aquamarine was a flower of diamonds, which could transform it into an entirely different piece.
