The Crown Jewels: A Peek Inside the Jewel House

The Crown. The very symbols of power, wealth, majesty and royalty. You can’t be the King without the Bling. Let’s take a look at the 1500 year history of the British crown jewels. They have been washed away in the sea, stolen from a grave, melted down to make coins, sold off to pay princely debts, and pilfered from countries across the globe to end up on the heads of Britain’s Kings and Queens.

I make mini documentaries about women's history and royal history:

“You can’t be a king without the bling.” Still a fire line.

And yes, I would love a video on the private jewelry of other royals!

My request: A video on Queen Elizabeth II's brooches. She has so many jewels you can get a vast number of videos from them, and I'll happily watch them all, but her brooches seem to be where she most expresses herself, and expresses what she's trying to convey with every outfit. I'd love a video on their history and meaning.

[Canerican.]

Yes, more jewelry video especially tiaras! There’s also the tiaras still in the Royal vaults that haven’t been seen in years!

[happycake]

It honestly sucks that there aren’t many pre restoration crowns or anything. Dammit Cromwell!

Yes please a video about the privately owned crowns, tiaras, etc. And maybe include a rundown on the difference between crown, tiara, and diadem.

Also, it’s fascinating seeing those crowns without their stones. The stones aren’t set the way I would think at all. That’s really cool.

Imagine being remembered even hundreds of years later for dropping queen Victoria's crown😭🙈

There’s something about Lindsay’s voice that just makes it easier to understand the history

I've been fortunate to visit the Tower of London & glad they keep them on display for all too see. The pics still don't do them justice...these are really priceless works of art...but to see the collection under lights ... unbelievable.. ..the beauty & sparkle is totally beyond anything I've ever seen!!!

"Victoria wrote that it was all crushed and squashed like a pudding that had sat down."

Did he drop it from the roof?

I'd never be able to see the crown jewels, so I really liked how clearly this video presented them. Man, that "king bling" was absolutely beautiful! The sparkle, the rich colors. I love the history, too. Thanks for sharing.

[rachelbridgeman]

Most definitely on the video about the tiaras!! They're just as fabulous as the crown jewels!!

[vaniasdream]

I'd love a video of the private tiaras and jewels, love to know more about the Spencer Tiara

[Lewisluck]

I was lucky enough to see the Crown Jewels a few years ago, at the Tower of London. The star of Africa was absolutely mesmerizing.

[emmaleeheise]

Omg yes please do the privately owned tiaras! They’re all so stunning

[lindatavella]

I would LOVE tiara and assorted jewelry videos from not only the British family but the others as well. There are some amazing stories and Luxembourg has some smashing pieces. I snicker about how the smaller Cullinan diamonds worn as a brooch were nicknamed “Granny’s Chips.”

[summeroflove]

Knocked it out of the park with this one. I have watched it three times already.

And yes absolutely the private tiara collection would be more than welcoming. Thanks Lindsay

[lizwilliams]

Yes, please make a video about the tiaras, necklaces, and broaches privately owned by the queen.

[franciscomendes]
