This pearl lives up to its regal title: its history is intimately linked to that of one of the greatest queens of England and its qualities make it one of the most beautiful pearls known to man, perpetuating the long tradition of pearls upheld by Cartier.
A weight of 166.18 grains (8.3 grams), an impressive size (21.82 mm x 17.6 mm x 16.4 mm), a perfectly symmetrical drop shape and a silvery satin orient: such are the awe-inspiring qualities of this peerless jewel.
A historic pearl with a heroine’s destiny – the story begins in the English court in the 1910s when it was worn by Queen Mary, consort of His Majesty King George V, Queen of England and Empress of India.
These twin drops, highly regular and gleaming with a perfect luster, represent 77.44 grains and 72.16 grains respectively of pure mother-of-pearl poetry.
