Princess Sibylla’s Jewels at Sotheby’s - Will the King Buy Them Back

A magnificent sapphire necklace once worn by the mother of Sweden's King Carl XVI Gustaf is heading to Sotheby's. But according to Swedish royal commentators, the King may not even have been warned that his late sister's children were preparing to sell these treasured family heirlooms. Now the question is whether he will allow the jewels to disappear into private collections or become their next owner himself. Before examining the jewels, we need to understand the extraordinary woman who once owned them. PRINCESS SIBYLLA OF SAXE-COBURG AND GOTHA was born in 1908 into one of Europe's most interconnected royal families. And upon her marriage to PRINCE GUSTAF ADOLF OF SWEDEN, she got access to the extraordinary jewels preserved by the Swedish royal family, including some of her personal jewels that now are heading to Sotheby’s auction.
So, in this video, we are looking into the story of Princess Sibylla's jewels and those that are offered at auction now. What will happen to them?
