The bracelet of Wallis Simpson (who became The Duchess of Windsor). The bracelet was commissioned by Edward VIII just a couple of months before his abdication. At the time, he was still fighting to gain acceptance for Wallis and to be able to marry the woman he loved. It consists of four ruby clusters surrounded by diamonds. The clasp bears the inscription “Hold Right 27.III.36”. It was an expression the couple often used between themselves to comfort and support each other in difficult times.
