A major new catalogue from Royal Collection
Publications, Ancient and Modern Gems and
Jewels in the Collection of Her Majesty
The Queen, is published this autumn. Spanning
over 2,000 years of jewellery history, it is the
first comprehensive study of the cameos,
intaglios, jewels and insignia in the Royal
Collection from the ‘ancient’ (pre-Renaissance)
and ‘modern’ (16th to 19th century) periods.
