The Ruby Set
The Ruby Set was first worn at Napoleon's imperial coronation in 1804 by Desiree, the later Queen of Sweden. The set came to Denmark in 1869, when her great-granddaughter Princess Lovisa married the Danish Crown Prince Frederik VIII. Queen Ingrid bequeathed the ruby set to Crown Prince Frederik.
The parure will be on display at Koldinghus as part of Mary & Kronprinsesserne. The exhibit runs from 1 February to 30 December 2022.
