The cross bracelet is so special. The flamingo broach is stunning. The emerald ring is most beautiful.💚 The entire collection is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 🦩🌺💗💗🌺🦩
Thank you for this most interesting story of the Duchesses Jewelry. I am most 😅I intrigued by th😂 fabulous designers and their particular ways of setting the stones. Beautiful.
...And I stopped after reading that they had left the jewels to "the family" and that they auctioned them and, in a gesture of detachment, they donated the amount obtained to the Pasteur Institute. WHICH FAMILY???!!! The truth, widely known, is that in their will, the dukes leave the jewels to the Pasteur Institute, as a token of gratitude to the French government for providing them with a home in Paris and not charging them taxes during the decades they lived there.
The Duchess of Windsor had an incredible jewelry collection. Her collection rivaled any heiress or royal of the time. All of her jewels were bold and interesting. I like all of the pieces, but the Cartier flamingo brooch might be my favorite. How many women can say they have a Cartier flamingo brooch as adornment?
Le bijou le plus splendide est le collier torsadé avec rubis et diamants ! non pour l histoire de Wallis et du duc de Windsor , mais pour l ingéniosité de Van Cleef et Arpel ; accompagné du bracelet magnifique !❤❤❤❤
She never loved him anyway he was just there to be used to her encouragement. He also became a Nazi collaborator. He wasn’t absolute fool and she was a snake. Neither one can be forgiven. Many innocent people died because of the two of them read the book Britain’s traitor King.
She was just a middle-class girl from Baltimore who made it big. Ambitious. Very intelligent. But she paid her price. A lifetime anchored to a 'nebbish', shunned British royal. Lots of parties. Lots of shopping. What fun it all must have been! But, later, the show is over. You end up a total ageing decrepit wreck, being abused by servants. Had it all been worth it? Who knows what her thoughts could have been in he final moments? Truth is that Wallis Simpson was not quite bright enough to understand that she was on a hiding to nothing. RIP.
My Dad, a WWII British Army veteran, always said if Edward became King we would be speaking German because of their leanings toward Hitler. My Mum said that Wallis had HRH on her linens but never received it.
Yes, but Donating them to be auctioned off for Charity was very generous indeed. These Charities would’ve never received anything like this had Wallis not received them. They certainly benefited which was a lovely thing to happen. I applaud her actions and believe her donation to be a final act of love.
Not mentioned n this video her Panther bracelets which are my personal favourites and the Prince of Wales brooch which Elizabeth Taylor bought for herself in memory of Burton after the Duchesses death .
Dutchy of Cornwall is the Prince of Wales. So, no you’re absolutely wrong. The privy purse not to mention a history of corruption and theft are where the royal collections wealth comes from. David was given a retirement fund.
1987 Flamingo broch, ring with yellow diamond 👍💙💙 love cartier crosses😎 and emerald diamong with 19 carat diamond 1936 propose her👍holy leaves diamond and ruby(86 tausend dollar, 1987 she pass away )😢
theirs was not a happy marriage. My fave piece is the cabochon emerald necklace, so feminine abd elegant. ❤ I am also getting many laughs listening to the AI narrator's pronunciations...dookie, ducky, orktion (auction) 😅😅😅
What's this love story you keep going on about? Apparently she loathed him and they spent most of their time competing for the favours of gigolos. Do your research.
apparently she was intersex! no wonder she never had chhildren. it was a narrator who said she was intrrsex. i was so surprised bu then again she is rather unlike a real woman. she loved being with gay men, not surprised. he on the other hand detested gay men; homophobe.😮
Edward VIII did not have access to income from the Cornwall estate, that goes to the Price of Whales. As Duke of Windsor he did not manage his money particularly well! So he was not as rich as some think.
He was Prince of Wales (what is the price of whales these days?) for several decades and saved a large percentage of that annual income before he was King. After he abdicated, it was negotiated that his brother, George VI, would pay him an additional yearly income in return for handing over Sandringham and Balmoral, which he inherited as private property from George V. Some sources say that Elizabeth II continued the payments for the rest of Wallis's life, but that's unclear.
Did I blink & miss her Cartier turquoise + amethyst suite? Love story? Mrs. Simpson very kindly kept her nazi sympathizer husband busy and out of the way of people trying to defeat Hitler. She also sent Nazi officers chasing all over Europe to look for her lost bathing suit. Still trying to decide if that was insanely self-absorbed or if she was deliberately trying to create ridiculous distractions.
A secret code, I assumed. They probably spell out a message if you list them. Either that or the narrator was inspissated and pulling our legs, rather crudely.
Whoever is doing the voice-over has a really weird way of pronoucing certain words. For example, the word Duchess is Duckious. Really weirdf and annoying!!!!!
Did he or she earn the money spent on the jewellery? Don't you feel ashamed creating haliography despite their admiration of Hitler? is this part of the new rehabilition program to justify Fascism?
The cross bracelet is so special. The flamingo broach is stunning. The emerald ring is most beautiful.💚 The entire collection is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
🦩🌺💗💗🌺🦩
This collection is my all time favorite. The pieces are so personal I wonder how the next owners feel having them in their collection.
Thank you for this most interesting story of the Duchesses Jewelry. I am most 😅I intrigued by th😂 fabulous designers and their particular ways of setting the stones. Beautiful.
You are so welcome!
The ruby and diamond necklace and bracelet to die for. Exquisite design.
The "emerald and ruby bib" is actually amethyst and turquoise. Yeah I left after that
Your loss. You missed some good stuff.
Plus the site couldn’t find a human to describe the jewels?
...And I stopped after reading that they had left the jewels to "the family" and that they auctioned them and, in a gesture of detachment, they donated the amount obtained to the Pasteur Institute. WHICH FAMILY???!!!
The truth, widely known, is that in their will, the dukes leave the jewels to the Pasteur Institute, as a token of gratitude to the French government for providing them with a home in Paris and not charging them taxes during the decades they lived there.
The Cartier flamingo brooch is superb.
Should all be in museums
Facts look at the craftsmanship of each piece plus the history!
Every time I see her I am reminded of that quote... Never has so much been lost for so little...
True !!!
Prince Harry may be feeling that way🤔
Indeed, hindsight eh? However, love or hate her, Edward chose WS over the throne.
I believe that the Cross bracelet is in Madonna's jewelry collection she loved thier story and admired Wallis Simpson.
The Duchess of Windsor had an incredible jewelry collection. Her collection rivaled any heiress or royal of the time. All of her jewels were bold and interesting. I like all of the pieces, but the Cartier flamingo brooch might be my favorite. How many women can say they have a Cartier flamingo brooch as adornment?
With the exception of Meghan Markle none of the women of the Royal Family would be caught dead wearing that tacky loud flamingo broach even as a joke.
@@mikesismey821Back then-and that was a long time ago-that flamingo was the height of fashion and luxury. She was such a golddigger.
The infamous Mrs. Simpson. My favourite favourite.
so Beautyful 💎👏👏
I love her engagement ring after the diamonds were added.
The emerald was a gift from a maharajah to Edward, then the Prince of Wales, on his trip to India.
All of this over-the-top jewelry still did not make Simpson a royal.
Except it wasn't a love story.
Yeah, she was somewhat…promiscuous, shall we say, and a golddigger.
They were both mentioned as customers in Scotty Bower' book.
She did not love him
Kind of like Donnie & Melania...
Their fiery love story? Please stop using an AI.
Very interesting video - however some of the pronunciations of the AI commentary are painful to listen to.....
Absolutely,
I’m so glad you e shown me how to pronounce the name of the city where they lived for three decades. Paris, of course it is Pa Rest!
Le bijou le plus splendide est le collier torsadé avec rubis et diamants ! non pour l histoire de Wallis et du duc de Windsor , mais pour l ingéniosité de Van Cleef et Arpel ; accompagné du bracelet magnifique !❤❤❤❤
The cross bracelet. Fabulous. Can’t understand why Cartier hasn’t re-issued it.
Yes, I am amazed at this cross bracelet; so unique!
Excellent video !!!!!😊
Thank you very much!
The "emerald and ruby bib" is in fact a TURQUOISE AND AMETHYST bib.
❤❤❤
The guy resigned from the only job he was ever going to have and yet still was able to buy $$$$ jewels for that old thing.
The cross bracelet was purchased at auction by Madonna.
Beautiful jewels and lovely to view but the pronunciation of Duke and Duchess and other slip ups was very annoying. Most be AI
She grew to despise him, she was trapped by him. They never did find the items missing from the Royal Collection that she took.
She never loved him anyway he was just there to be used to her encouragement. He also became a Nazi collaborator. He wasn’t absolute fool and she was a snake. Neither one can be forgiven. Many innocent people died because of the two of them read the book Britain’s traitor King.
Oh! And word for word from my article.
Elizabeth Taylor bought some of her jewellery when it was auctioned.
She was just a middle-class girl from Baltimore who made it big. Ambitious. Very intelligent. But she paid her price. A lifetime anchored to a 'nebbish', shunned British royal. Lots of parties. Lots of shopping. What fun it all must have been! But, later, the show is over. You end up a total ageing decrepit wreck, being abused by servants. Had it all been worth it? Who knows what her thoughts could have been in he final moments? Truth is that Wallis Simpson was not quite bright enough to understand that she was on a hiding to nothing. RIP.
Sita Devi was savage
My Dad, a WWII British Army veteran, always said if Edward became King we would be speaking German because of their leanings toward Hitler. My Mum said that Wallis had HRH on her linens but never received it.
She did not really even like him. She was very rude and dismissive of him after their marriage.
I liked her he gave it all up for her, Charles wanted it all
Who received the funds from these sales?
Też jestem tego ciekawa, ale odpowiedzi niestety nie znalazłam. Wiemy gdzie jest bransoletka z krzyżami, kupiła ja Madonna.
Po śmierci męża Wallis odziedziczyła cały majątek, a po jej śmierci jej rodzina sprzedała biżuterię na aukcji.
I have two rings from them
All proceeds were donated to The Louis Pastore Institute.
Probably the lawyer that was robbing Wallis blind the last several years of her life.
At the end, you can take nothing with you. And they had no children.
Yes, but Donating them to be auctioned off for Charity was very generous indeed. These Charities would’ve never received anything like this had Wallis not received them. They certainly benefited which was a lovely thing to happen. I applaud her actions
and believe her donation to be a final act of love.
That picture of Wallis in the beginning reminds me of that 90's Dracula movie with Gary Oldman 😂
Such an interesting story. They should make a movie.
Madonna now owns the bracelet of crosses.
The amethyst necklace isn't emerald. The diamond and ruby feathers sold for 806,000 instead of 86,000 Don't you check your work???
Not mentioned n this video her Panther bracelets which are my personal favourites and the Prince of Wales brooch which Elizabeth Taylor bought for herself in memory of Burton after the Duchesses death .
especially the brooch is very majestic 👑 🙏
Dutchy of Cornwall is the Prince of Wales. So, no you’re absolutely wrong. The privy purse not to mention a history of corruption and theft are where the royal collections wealth comes from. David was given a retirement fund.
1987 Flamingo broch, ring with yellow diamond 👍💙💙 love cartier crosses😎 and emerald diamong with 19 carat diamond 1936 propose her👍holy leaves diamond and ruby(86 tausend dollar, 1987 she pass away )😢
She always respect the royals and never talk about the royal family as Meghan markle.
Her jewels 💎 are more impressive than that of Queen mothers
Njen ukus je bio savršen Velika dama
Taking extreme license in pronouncing people’s & business names; ridiculous!
And with other pronunciation also. The AI voice really spoils an otherwise interesting series of video's.
Not an actual person doing the commentary. It’s AI.
At a time when Europe was in turmoil eventually leading to World War, these two were ordering jewellery.
theirs was not a happy marriage. My fave piece is the cabochon emerald necklace, so feminine abd elegant. ❤ I am also getting many laughs listening to the AI narrator's pronunciations...dookie, ducky, orktion (auction) 😅😅😅
Honestly these jewelry pieces have to be her personal design choices. Too loud. Too tacky and too vulgar just as she was.
Neki legalább volt stílusérzéke és nem akart a windsori kastélyba költözni
She detested him...what a joke
What about the tiger?
What's this love story you keep going on about? Apparently she loathed him and they spent most of their time competing for the favours of gigolos. Do your research.
Can you find out who paid for all this jewelry he was not a working Royal where did he get all this money from
He was given a pension from the Crown
Also, Sandringham and Balmoral were privately owned by the monarch. His brother had to buy them off him.
Wallis stand by her husband.
AI is doing most of these narrations.
Hate these robot voices. SO SO annoying and sometimes really hilarious.
Was her jewelry stolen in the 1940s every recovered?
Everything I have ever read was the jewelry was not recovered.
0:22 δεν την βλέπω πολύ όμορφη
apparently she was intersex!
no wonder she never had chhildren.
it was a narrator who said she was intrrsex.
i was so surprised bu then again she is rather unlike a real woman.
she loved being with gay men, not surprised.
he on the other hand detested gay men; homophobe.😮
Did you know that couple
Edward VIII did not have access to income from the Cornwall estate, that goes to the Price of Whales. As Duke of Windsor he did not manage his money particularly well! So he was not as rich as some think.
He was Prince of Wales (what is the price of whales these days?) for several decades and saved a large percentage of that annual income before he was King.

Some sources say that Elizabeth II continued the payments for the rest of Wallis's life, but that's unclear.
The pronunciation of a lot of the words is so amateurish
Where are these jwellerys now
Did I blink & miss her Cartier turquoise + amethyst suite?
Love story? Mrs. Simpson very kindly kept her nazi sympathizer husband busy and out of the way of people trying to defeat Hitler. She also sent Nazi officers chasing all over Europe to look for her lost bathing suit. Still trying to decide if that was insanely self-absorbed or if she was deliberately trying to create ridiculous distractions.
And so many were never paid for. Nothing but a couple of Thieves, in my opinion.😑
Why don’t they keep it in the family
Where are those jwel
What’s with the very weird pronunciations of words like “duke” and “emerald” and so many more. Completely distracting.
A secret code, I assumed. They probably spell out a message if you list them. Either that or the narrator was inspissated and pulling our legs, rather crudely.
I believe Elizabeth Taylor bought the flamingo brooch. It's said she commented "It's the only piece of jewelry I bought myself."
I agree....give me an actual human giving the narrative.....horrible
She was hoping to be Queen and had to marry him ,he was a weak ,weak man .
The commentary is really hard to listen to
Why was he not allowed to marry this lady?
He couldn't marry her and remain King as she was divorced and he was Head of the Church of England.
Who is reading this??? They need help!!!!
AI commentary should be edited prior to publication of the video.
The duke and duCKess of Windsor….WTF
Who put her jewels up for auction, seeing as there were no offspring from the union?
The Duchess left her jewelry to Charities upon her death. I feel certain, if you apply yourself, you may discover exactly which Charities.
@@misplacedsouthern1236 Salty, lol 😂
Ruby and Emerald necklace ???
Actually the stones are Amethyst and Turquoise. AI strikes again
The artificial voice of the narration makes listening to Ithis very difficult & unpleasant.
Oh, another video with my stolen images.
NOT THE PRETTIEST of course she herself said this . Dirty how edward lied to get her these items, Perhaps to keep her cbl
Why can’t a real person do the narration over these videos? The pronunciation of some words is ear piercing 😩
B. B. B vb
Sese
Who cares a out her jewelry why are so opposed qirh peoples jewelry your just causing envy and trouble
Stupid AI voice ruins it
All stolen
Whoever is doing the voice-over has a really weird way of pronoucing certain words. For example, the word Duchess is Duckious. Really weirdf and annoying!!!!!
Awful cg voice
Hilarious pronunciation.
Did he or she earn the money spent on the jewellery? Don't you feel ashamed creating haliography despite their admiration of Hitler? is this part of the new rehabilition program to justify Fascism?
Kraljevska porodica kompletna bila je uz Hitlera Nakon rata oprali su te podatke
Your closed caption is Appalling. You obviously use a CHEAP program and I would suggest you UPGRADE it.
I will not watch any more of your videos!
A human voice would be better
Was he queer
