    Marjorie Merriweather Post, the American heiress, businesswoman, and philanthropist, was known not only for her wealth and social influence but also for her exquisite taste in jewelry. Her collection includes some of the most remarkable and historically significant pieces ever created. In this video, we explore the dazzling world of Marjorie Merriweather Post's jewelry collection, highlighting each piece's stunning artistry and rich history.
    One of the most opulent pieces in Post's collection is the Marie Louise Diadem. Originally given to Empress Marie Louise of France by her husband, Napoleon Bonaparte, this diadem is a masterpiece of early 19th-century craftsmanship. Adorned with emeralds and diamonds, this tiara epitomizes the grandeur of Napoleonic jewelry.
    The Napoleon Diamond Necklace is another extraordinary piece with royal provenance. Commissioned by Napoleon for his second wife, Marie Louise, this necklace features a stunning array of diamonds set in a classical design. It reflects the emperor's love for grand gestures and luxury.
    The Marie Antoinette Earrings are steeped in history, once belonging to the ill-fated Queen of France. These diamond earrings are not only beautiful but also carry Marie Antoinette's tragic and romantic legacy, adding a poignant element to Post's collection.
    The Maximilian Emerald Ring is a standout piece due to its vibrant green emerald, once owned by Emperor Maximilian of Mexico. The ring's historical significance and the exceptional quality of the emerald make it a jewel of immense value and beauty.
    This set includes a necklace and earrings, each featuring an exquisite combination of diamonds and rubies. The intricate design and the vivid contrast of colors make this demi-parure a true showstopper.
    Among the rarest gems in Post's collection is the Blue Heart Diamond. This deep blue, heart-shaped diamond is a marvel of nature and craftsmanship. Its unique color and flawless cut make it a highlight of the collection.
    The Emerald Brooch, featuring a large central emerald surrounded by diamonds, showcases Post's love for vibrant gemstones. The brooch's design emphasizes the natural beauty of the emerald, making it a timeless piece.
    This necklace is a perfect example of Art Deco elegance. The combination of sapphires and diamonds in a geometric design reflects the artistic spirit of the 1920s and 1930s, capturing the essence of an era.
    This unique necklace pairs the rich purple of amethysts with the striking blue of turquoise. The unusual combination of colors and the intricate design make it a standout piece in Post's collection.
    The Pearl and Diamond Necklace is a classic and elegant piece. It combines the timeless beauty of pearls with the brilliance of diamonds, exemplifying understated luxury and sophistication.
    This set features the soft glow of moonstones paired with the luster of pearls. The ethereal quality of moonstones and the timeless appeal of pearls make this set a truly enchanting part of the collection.
    The Peridot Gold Bracelet showcases the vibrant green of peridots set in rich yellow gold. The combination creates a striking piece that is both elegant and eye-catching.
    This whimsical brooch features a delicate hummingbird adorned with rubies and diamonds. The intricate detailing and the playful design reflect Post's appreciation for nature and fine craftsmanship.
    Named after the daisy flower, this brooch features rubies and diamonds arranged in a floral design. The bright rubies and sparkling diamonds create a joyful and luxurious piece.
    The Diamond Engagement Ring in Post's collection is a testament to the timeless appeal of diamonds. Its classic design and exceptional quality make it a symbol of enduring love and elegance.

    Dazzling collection indeed! I like the peridot bracelet, her philantrophy shows her immense generosity is wonderful. Thank you, Andrew, for another lovely video. Stay well as always.

  • @keithss67

    She gave the jewels as a way to cut her taxes. Yes she was an important philanthropist. But let’s not get carried away

    The George Headley you used the pic of in this content unfortunately is not the jewelry designer, the person you used their pic is a West Indian cricket player from the old times named George Headley. You wanted to use the picture of George W. Headley. Too bad. I was kind of excited that Marjorie Merriwether Post was a patron of a black jeweler back when it was not the norm and would be very progressive of her at the time so I went in a deep dive to find out everything about the designer and his other works and unfortunately discovered the error.

  • @user-cj6ws4dz1m

  • @albertmorris6162

    I wonder which of these gems had originally come from the Romanov collection.
