ANNE BOLEYN’S B NECKLACE | Anne Boleyn’s jewellery | Famous Tudor jewels | Six wives documentary

Описание: What do we really know about ANNE BOLEYN’S B NECKLACE, one of the most recognisable and famous Tudor jewels? This pearl necklace with golden B pendant and accompanying gold chain is seen in multiple portraits of Henry VIII’s second wife, but as with so many other pieces of Anne Boleyn’s jewellery, its history and fate are obscure and a number of legends have grown up around it which may or may not be true, including the theory that it was inherited by her daughter Elizabeth I and that some of its pearls now sit in the Imperial State Crown of the United Kingdom. In this six wives documentary from History Calling, we go back to the original sources to discover what we actually know about this infamous royal jewel, how much (if any) merit the stories around it deserve and what Anne’s attitude to initial or monogram jewellery was. We’ll also look at the wider fame and significance of the necklace, including its many appearances in screen depictions of Anne (such the portrayals of her by Natalie Dormer in The Tudors, Natalie Portman in The Other Boleyn Girl and Jodie Turner-Smith in Channel 5’s Anne Boleyn) and its continuing impact on modern fashion through its appearance in TV and fashion shows not related to this doomed Queen. As such, we’ll discuss the appearance of modernised versions of it in The Vampire Diaries, Ugly Betty, a Balenciaga fashion show and around the neck of famous individuals such as Bella Hadid.
