Really fun to see my article in British Vogue — 'The Story Behind The Royal Family's Enduring Love Affair With Cartier' — complete with wonderfully evocative images of the royal family wearing Cartier jewels through the decades, including this one of the Queen and the Duchess of Cambridge in the fabulous Hyderabad diamond necklace.
My thanks to Rachel Garrahan, Jewellery and Watch Director at British Vogue, for asking me to write this piece on the back of the online royal jewels lectures I've been giving with Caroline de Guitaut.
