Premiere of the series of the Royal Jewelery at SVT
Now the Swedish royal family opens the door for the most private. In the series "Kungliga smycken" at SVT, which premieres on April 2, we will hear for the first time Queen Silvia, Princess Christina and Crown Princess Victoria tell about the royal jewelry. And the stories are, to say the least, personal!
We'll see them at Nobel parties, royal weddings and parties. And so at the king's great dinners and invitations on the court. What are we talking about? Of course, the royal jewelery!
The jewelry is extremely beautiful - and priceless. But they also carry incredible stories. Stories about Sweden, about the world, about our relations with other countries, about the women who wore them.
Now SVT brings a happy news to everyone who likes history, royalty and jewelery. Two parts are now being told about the Swedish royal jewels.
“Never before have television viewers been able to study the royal Swedish jewels as closely as they are now. In two unique programs the royal jewelery box is opened, and priceless tiaras, necklaces and earrings are picked out. The jewelry tells about the history of the royal house and Sweden and about the women who carried the jewels throughout history. Queen Silvia, Crown Princess Victoria and Princess Christina tell in person about the jewelry history as symbols of power and love", writes SVT in a press release.
- The jewelry tells so much, it's a treasure, a cultural heritage. They stand for as much as Sweden has stood for and contacts with different countries, says Queen Silvia.
With Queen Josefina also came the comedy diadem, which both Queen Silvia and Crown Princess Victoria wore at their weddings. And Queen Silvia now says that it was the king's idea that she should wear the Cameo diadem as the bride's crown, writes SVT.
- For me, it was so nice to know that both Princess Birgitta and Princess Desirée had worn the cameos. It was like a good omen to me. After all, it became a wedding diadem, says Queen Silvia.
- They are there to look at and really consider, and they tell so much about a time and in some cases people as well. I think it makes the story come alive, continues Crown Princess Victoria.
"With the help of jewelery experts and historians, Sara Bull and her team dig in archives around the world and find new information about the royal jewelery revealed in the program", SVT writes in the press release.
In addition, the program tells an extremely nice story about Princess Sibylla's diadem. It means a lot to Princess Christina - and to her siblings, the Haga princesses and the King!
- I have many memories about this piece of jewelry because my mother used to wear it, says Princess Christina, she also tells how she and her sisters persuaded Miss Silvia Sommerlath to use just Sibylla's diadem at the gala before the wedding with the king.
- We said; "You must have this on you. Our mother must be able to attend when Carl Gustaf finally gets married!”, Princess Christina says.
Royal Jewelry is a documentary in two parts by Sara Bull and Rikard Collsiöö for Sveriges Television. The first episode will be broadcasted on SVT1 on April 2, 2020 at 20:00. The second episode of Royal Jewelery will be broadcasted on April 9 at 20:00 in SVT1.
