The County of Cornwall gave the bride, when she married the Duke of York in 1893, a ruby and diamond bracelet incorporating a detachable centrepiece in the shape of a rose. She was given a number of jewels in the shape of the Rose of York, in honour of her new title.
She wrote a letter to Lady St Germans, about the ruby diamond gold-cuff bracelet:
"When you came to bring me the present from the people of Cornwall I felt quite unable to express the deep gratitude I felt at receiving the very beautiful ruby and diamond bracelet. II ask you kindly to convey to them my warmest and utmost grateful thanks for the very lovely gift from Cornwall...believe me, yours very sincerely MAY"
In 1898 Queen Mary, at this time Duchess of York, wore the diamond and ruby centerpiece as a brooch on her collar, as seen in the picture above. She is with her two sons - the future Edward VIII (1894-1972) and George VI (1895-1952) and her daughter Princess Mary (1897-1965).
She gave this ruby and diamond gold cuff bracelet as a wedding gift to her granddaughter Princess Elizabeth.

There are some confusion about this bracelet, because, one of the gifts from Prince George, is a diamond rose brooch in the style of the "Rose of York" as well as, the present of the West Yorkshire Regiment is a diamond rose brooch, see the different diamond brooches >>
