There will be a private ceremony at Windsor Castle for the burial of Elizabeth II. The Duke of Edinburgh will be next to the monarch’s grave. The Palace of Commons is the seat of the UK parliament.
Lisa Levison, head of communication for the Natural Diamond Council, which represents seven of the world’s leading diamond producers, told Metro.co.uk that the monarch will be buried with two jewels, a Welsh gold wedding ring and a pair of diamonds. She doesn’t think she’s wearing too much jewelry.
Since 1923, the Clogau St David mine has been used to make wedding bands for the royal family. The tradition of making all rings with this metal for the British monarchy began with a gift from her parents.
Her ring is made of Platinum and features eleven natural diamonds, including a three-carat round diamond and five smaller stones on each side. Philip was heavily involved in the design.
Levison predicts that Princess Anne, the second child of Prince Philip and Princess Alice of Battenberg, will get the ring as a result of the marriage. This would make the ring part of the British crown.
The private jewelry collection of Queen Elizabeth II included 98 brooches, 46 necklaces, 15 rings, 14 watches, five pendants and 34 pairs of earrings. She appreciated her wedding ring a lot. This was a secret that only she and The Duke of Edinburgh had knowledge of.

Three countries banned at his funeral
The queen’s funeral will be held on Monday, September 19. Russia is at war with Ukraine. The current conflict left Putin out of the funeral. For allying itself with Moscow in the conflict with neighboringUkraine, the same reasoning applies.
