Though they’d met several times earlier in their childhood, Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip officially made their acquaintance when they were teenagers. She couldn’t take her eyes off the handsome young naval cadet and immediately fell in love. Their romance began in 1946. Within a few months, they decided to get married.
Through marriage, children, world events, triumphs and trials, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip’s fairy-tale romance endured. By the time Philip passed in 2021, the two had been married 73 years, longer than any royal couple in history. In commemoration of their enduring devotion to each other, we now present you with a replica of their engagement ring.
As a man of relatively modest means, Philip asked his mother, Princess Alice of Battenburg, for her assistance in creating the ring. Alice gave him her royal wedding tiara, a gift from Czar Nicholas and Czarina Alexandra of Russia. Philip used a 3-carat diamond from the tiara to design a breathtaking engagement ring with the support of British jeweler Philip Antrobus Ltd.
Now, you can own your own piece of the magic with the Queen Elizabeth II Royal Collection. The collection features Queen Elizabeth II Engagement Ring and the Royal Pear Drop Earrings.
What’s DiamondAura® Through a process that involves heating stones at a temperature of nearly 5,000° F, DiamondAura® is formed. After cutting and polishing, these stones are more optically clear and possess even more fire and color than a “D” flawless diamond!
Don’t believe us? The book “Jewelry and Gems: The Buying Guide” praised the technique used in our diamond alternative DiamondAura®: “The best diamond simulation to date, and even some jewelers have mistaken these stones for mined diamonds,” it raved.
Act fast. Of our original run of 400 earrings, we only have 213 left. Own a piece of the British monarchy today.
