Princess Eugenie wore over £1.1 million worth of jewels on her wedding day

This week marks the fourth wedding anniversary of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank.

To celebrate, fine jewellery experts at UK retailer Steven Stone have taken a close look at the jewellery that the Princess wore on her big day – revealing all the juicy details.

Eugenie’s tiara was borrowed from her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. Worth £1 million, the Greville Emerald Kokoshnik tiara is the most valuable royal tiara. Made of rose-cut pave diamonds, set in platinum, the tiara is adorned with six emeralds. The centre features a 93.7 carat cabochon-cut emerald, which is what makes it so valuable.
Eugenie’s diamond and cabochon emerald drop earrings were a gift from her new husband. Featuring a 1.5 carat cabochon green emerald and seven round brilliant diamonds, the glamorous drop-style earrings are worth approximately £7,000.
Princess Eugenie has the rarest royal engagement ring – worth £120k, it features padparadscha sapphires, which are rarer than diamonds.
Following family tradition, Princess Eugenie’s wedding ring was made from a piece of Welsh gold given by Queen Elizabeth II.
Maxwell Stone commented: “Though Princess Eugenie kept her jewellery fairly simple on her wedding day, it’s clear that a lot of thought went into each piece as they all have a family connection – from her wedding ring that was made from a piece of Welsh gold given by Queen Elizabeth II, to a pair of diamond and cabochon emerald drop earrings that were a gift from her new husband.

The Princess surprised us all by not wearing her mother’s tiara – instead opting to borrow the Greville Emerald Kokoshnik tiara from her grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II. Featuring a 93.7 carat cobochon-cut emerald, it’s the most valuable royal tiara and worth a staggering £1,000,000.

Eugenie’s engagement ring was visible on her right hand – featuring an incredibly rare pink padparadscha sapphire, surrounded by a halo of sparkling diamonds, Eugenie’s engagement ring is by far the rarest royal engagement ring. Padparadscha sapphires are so rare in fact that many people haven’t heard of them – they’re strikingly beautiful with unique shades of pink and orange that often resemble the colours of a sunset.”
