These can include heirloom pieces &#8211; jewellery passed down from the late Queen, the Queen Mother, or Princess Diana to the King or Prince William, and then on to Camilla or Catherine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s still a large amount of personal jewellery in the family that hasn\u2019t been publicly seen, so passing on heirlooms is very likely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nHowever, the royal wives may also receive \u201ccontemporary\u201d new pieces too.<\/p>\n<p>\nGrant added: \u201cThey also give new jewellery. The royals do buy from modern jewellers &#8211; for example, Catherine has been seen in pieces made by a close family friend.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSo Christmas gifts could easily include both antiques and contemporary designs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nCamilla is unlikely to receive a ring from Charles, because she has so many, or a tiara, because the headpieces are typically shared between the women in the family.<\/p>\n<p>\nGrant said: \u201cCamilla favours pearl necklaces, classic earrings, and brooches &#8211; much like the late Queen. Those are the most likely gifts. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cRings are possible but she already has many, so they\u2019re less likely. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cTiaras are extremely unlikely because the Royal Collection already holds a large number that they all share and rotate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nAlthough it is a possibility William could gift Catherine something for their new family home, Grant insisted they would probably prefer to choose such items together.<\/p>\n<p>\nOf William\u2019s gift choices, he said: \u201cAlmost certainly jewellery &#8211; earrings, necklaces, bangles, or a small brooch. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThey might also give something for the home, especially since William and Kate have recently moved, but larger items are usually chosen together.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cRealistically, a piece of jewellery is the most likely Christmas gift.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/royal_family\/queen-camilla-catherine-princess-wales-likely-receive-festive-heirlooms-1435115.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>24 December 2025 Queen Camilla and Catherine, Princess of Wales are likely to receive \u201cheirloom\u201d jewellery from their husbands for Christmas.
