A stunning array of jewellery owned by Princess Margaret s mother-in-law Countess of Rosse is set to go up for auction at Bonhams.    Two pieces, which were formerly part of socialite Anne Parons collection, a late 19th century emerald, pearl and diamond bangle, and a mid-19th century onyx cameo, enamel, pearl and diamond bracelet, will go up for sale on 28 April in London - almost three decades after her death in 1992. The bracelet, which also once belonged to Adrian Hope of the famous Anglo-Dutch banking dynasty, has an estimate of £15,000-20,000 – whilst the bangle has an estimate of £20,000-30,000.  Emily Barber, Head of Bonhams Jewellery Department, UK, commented; The Countess of Rosse was a woman of exquisite taste, and the two pieces offered in the sale clearly express this.
