The Princess of Wales wore her Links of London effervescence earrings five or six times between 2011 and 2012. She brought the sterling silver chain drop earrings back just once, for an engagement in 2014. We’ve yet to see them again.

The other Links of London earrings in Kate’s jewellery box:

About Links of London:
Links of London was a British jewellery brand established in 1990 by founders John Ayton and Annoushka Ducas. Known for its elegant and timeless designs like the Friendship and Sweetie bracelets, it was a favourite for those seeking accessible luxury.
In 2006, Ducas and Ayton sold Links of London to Greek jewellery retailer Folli Follie. They maintained a global presence with outlets in Europe, the US, and Asia.
However, the brand faced financial difficulties and eventually ceased trading. Despite efforts to find a buyer, Links of London couldn’t sustain its business. The last known store to close was in Hong Kong, and as of June 2020, the brand is no longer in operation.
It’s a poignant end for a brand that once had such a strong following.
