Kate Middleton first showcased the Azuni Athena earrings on the Jubilee tour back in 2012. The Princess chose the gold stud and aqua chalcedony gemstone earrings for a visit to Tuvalu. Around two weeks later, the earrings made a reappearance at a friend’s wedding.
Its thought Kate also wore the earrings during a shopping trip at Chelsea Harbour in 2013, while Pregnant with Prince George.
While these blue gemstone earrings haven’t resurfaced since, it’s surely just a question of when, not if, they’ll make a comeback.
On an intriguing note, I think Kate might have worn the same design in purple amethyst too. But this is just a theory.
