Crown Jewels of the Netherlands

In 1790 the term "Bijoux de la Couronne" was used by Luise of Brunswick -Wolfenbüttel to refer to a large diamond from Borneo.

In 1896 the Firm of van Kempen & Begeer wrote about resetting the jewels of the Crown ("juweelen der kroon").

Queen Juliana gave a selection of her formal jewelry to the new Foundation Regalia of the House of Orange-Nassau, instituted on 27 July 1963.

The famous Small Sancy diamond of 34 carat[1] was bought by Frederik Hendrik, and is now in the collection of the Prussian Royal Family.

The set of jewels containing 800 diamonds and the famous "Garuda" bracelet from the Dutch East Indies that were given to the then Princess Juliana were broken up after their deaths.

[5] During World War II the Dutch Crown Jewels were flown for safekeeping from The Hague to the UK and were kept in the vaults of Wolverhampton Town Hall.
