"This sumptuously illustrated book surveys the wealth, power, and prestige of 800 years of European monarchies in the form of the jewels that hung around their necks, were sewn into their clothing, and dripped from their fingers - often into the waiting hands of favored courtiers." "Beginning with the weighty, gem-encrusted gold crowns of medieval kings and ending with the glittering diamond tiaras of the princesses of the Belle Epoque, Royal. Jewels shows the exquisite range of gems worn by Europe's fabled monarchs." "Illustrated with exceptional photographs of the jewels themselves, as well as with evocative period paintings and vintage photographs of bejeweled monarchs and their families, Royal Jewels is the first book to gather together this unparalleled collection of jewelry - outstanding both in its quality and relevance to the social and cultural history of Europe and the Western world. The book will appeal to any lover of jewelry, fashion, or history."--BOOK JACKET.

"The history of royal jewels told through the destiny of the queens who wore them." Serving as a resplendent symbol of regal power and grandeur, royal jewels have been treasured assets of monarchies for centuries. Whether hidden or flaunted, sold or stolen, the stories behind crown jewels mirror the history of the rise and fall of the world's most legendary families. In this stunning, lavishly illustrated volume, royalty expert Vincent Meylan draws readers into the fascinating tales of passion, mystery, adventure and intrigue that surround royal jewel caches, and shows what these dazzling treasures have meant to both the royals who wear them and the public that admires them. Beginning with the state of royal jewels today, Queens' Jewels looks back in time to chronicle the history--sometimes glamorous, sometimes gruesome--of the glittering regalia of monarchs in Russia, Iran and all across Western Europe. From the Bonapartes to the Romanovs to the Windsors, Queens' Jewels "recreates a mythical universe of which these jewels are the most powerful symbol, the silent witness of times of glory and times of tragedy."
