We’re talking about a huge ring Camilla wears on her wedding finger. Actually, this gem has a fascinating history. As it turns out, it used to belong to Prince Charles’ beloved grandmother, the Queen Mother.

In the 80s, she was often seen donning the flashy ring at various official events. And while some may think it was the jewel King George VI used to propose to Queen Elizabeth, it wasn’t her engagement ring.

You can’t deny the fact that the heirloom looks impressive. Estimated at around $290 thousand, it features an art deco design and a 5-carat diamond in the center, paired with 3 diamond baguettes on both sides.
