The Grima Ruby Brooch

The Grima Ruby Brooch
Made of recycled carved rubies, free-form gold, and diamonds, this brooch was created by jeweler Andrew Grima. It was given to The Queen by The Duke of Edinburgh in 1966, and is one of a number of modern pieces that have been added to her collection during her reign. The palace has referred to this brooch as the Scarab Brooch.
