A royal expert has stated that Queen

Elizabeth II will be buried with only two pieces from her jewelry collection. Lisa Levinson, who is at the head of the Natural Communication Council, said that the «humble» monarch will be buried wearing only her gold wedding band and a pair of pearl earrings.

Supposedly, her engagement ring, encrusted with diamonds taken from the tiara that belonged to Queen Alice of Battenberg, mother of her husband Prince Philip, could be bequeathed to Queen Elizabeth II’s daughter, Princess Anne. It’s a piece that was given to her parents at their 1923 wedding.
