Pascal Le SegretainGetty Images The Swedish royal family, known as the House of Bernadotte, has an enviable collection of jewels in their vaults, many of which boast an esteemed provenance. But one particular set a matching tiara, necklace, earrings, and brooch known as the Cameo Parure stands out among the rest. The parure, which in recent years has been worn by Queen Silvia, and, memorably, by Crown Princess Victoria on the day of her royal wedding, is characterized by a series of cameos, or individual carvings, which reference Greek mythology. This alone makes the jewels notable, as most tiaras and the like seen these days are set with diamonds and rubies and emeralds and any number of other precious stones, not cameos but the real intrigue behind the set lies with its original owner: Empress Joséphine, Napoleon Bonaparte s first wife.
