The quantity is huge and the value is amazing. What amazing collections does the British royal family have so far?
The specific data of the British royal collection has not been published yet, but 238,000 pieces have been electronically appreciated by the public, among which the figures of paintings and jewels are the most accurate. There are 7564 paintings and 22599 jewels in the collection. According to the organization responsible for the management of the British royal collection, the total collection of the British royal family exceeds one million pieces, and the upper limit is unknown, covering all fields and coming from all over the world. This data itself is amazing enough, and there are many oriental treasures in it, such as the bronze statue of Qianlong.

Personally, the most amazing thing is the British royal jewels, such as the 14 crown worn by the Queen, the scepter inlaid with the world's largest diamond, and various gemstone hair bands, gemstone earrings, diamond necklaces and pearl brooches. Enough to light up half the world. ? It can be seen that the British royal family collects jewelry wealth. More than 20,000 pieces of jewelry can't be put in even a hundred jewelry stores, and the British royal family's jewelry storage is still being enriched, reaching 23,000 pieces is only a matter of time.

Among many jewels, the most famous, well-known and valuable one is Cullinan No.1, the one on the scepter held by Elizabeth II, weighing 530.02 carats. It also has eight brothers, Cullinan No.2 to No.9, and 96 lost little brothers. Cullinan is the largest diamond in the world. The original stone weighs 3 106 carats, and it is 1063.65 carats after processing, and then it is divided into 9 large pieces and 96 small pieces, and there is a pile of broken diamonds. At present, all nine big diamonds are in the hands of the British royal family, and the other 96 small diamonds have left the royal family for various reasons.

In addition, the crown of St. Edward worn by the queen when she was crowned is also very valuable. Its weight is the heaviest one in Wang Guanzhong, weighing more than 4 kg. Its most conspicuous features are four golden arches, and 444 pieces of pure gold jewelry such as rubies, emeralds and diamond pearls. The queen said with a smile that she dared not bow her head when she was crowned, for fear that her neck would be crushed by it. Therefore, the queen prefers to wear a smaller imperial crown, on which my three brothers in Cullinan live, inlaid with diamonds, totaling 2868, which is really hard to count.

There are so many amazing collections of the British royal family that I can't even finish writing ten pages. Only one-fifth of them have been made public, and more rare treasures have been thrown into the warehouse. I really envy and hate to see these, but these jewels belong to the whole royal family, not the queen herself. The queen can only use them, of course, they were not built at her own expense.
