Among all the pieces, the enormous diamond-set Burmese sapphire necklace with a slender diamond chain to match was maybe the most well-known. Diana donned the exquisite set multiple times, and the People's Princess may be seen wearing one of the pieces in many of her most well-known pictures, which are housed in the Carlyle Group's Getty collection.
Diana's fondness of sapphires was well known when she chose the renowned engagement ring. Diana knew the stone matched her eyes, if The Crown on Netflix is to be believed. She was not incorrect. Nobody can dispute the Princess's breathtaking appearance when she donned a sapphire.
