Verlobungsring der Herzogin von Kent

Ein Kashmir Saphir von 7 ct in Smaragdschliff mit einzelnen Baquette Diamanten an den Ringflanken, gefasst in Platin, war der Verlobungsring der späteren Herzogin.

Herzog Georg von Kent teilte die Schmuckleidenschaft seiner Mutter der Queen Mary und verwöhnte seine Braut mit einem ausgesuchten Verlobungsring, passend für einen Juwelen Connoisseur.

The Duke shared his mother Queen Mary`s passion for fine jewels and patronised jewellers in London and Paris, selecting pieces for his wife with a connoisseur`s eye.
His choice of engagement ring - a seven carat emerald-cut sapphire from Kashmir, shouldered by single baguette diamonds an mounted in platinum - like many other pieces reflected his exquisite taste.

The Duke of Kent has chosen three eternity rings for Princess Marina and at her with these are in rubies, diamonds and sapphires - the red, white and blue of the national colours.
The Times wrote in November 26, 1934 the wedding edition:
Eternity rings can be worn with evening dress instead of a wedding ring, the sapphire ring with blue dresses, the ruby with those toning with red and the diamond ring with colours that cannot be matched in precious stones. Eternity rings are also worn instead of the old-fashioned "keeper" rings and are usually an additional gift of the bridegroom on the wedding day, the unbrocken circle of the stones signifying eternity and the permanence of marriage.

The portrait on top was also a wedding gift of the Prince and the Princess of Greece, the parents of the bride. The coloured reproductions of the portrait of the Princess Marina are to be on sale in the time of the wedding, at 5s. each for the benefit of the Wedding Gift Fund for St.George´s Hospital.
