Very interesting, indeed, Sandy!  Thanks for sharing it! 

I gotta say tho..Queen Elizabeth looked a whole lot more gracious wearing hers than Camilla

A new one to me, too.  Thanks for sharing.  As an aside, I have loved watching The Gilded Age.

Thanks for sharing, that is new to me!  I think I might have one of those , old costume pin!

I knew the name and that it was a giant pin worn front and center on a garment, but not that it was always worn that low.  Not surprised ladies still wore them into the late 19th century.  IIRC they started in the 18th century somewhere.

I did know about them. They are beautiful ❤️ Queen Elizabeth knew how to wear one ❤️
