The engagement ring is made of platinum and features a round three-carat brilliant stone flanked by smaller pavé-set diamonds. Prince Philip commissioned it from a London jewellery firm, Philip Antrobus, in 1947. The diamonds had a much longer royal history.
Prince Philip's mother, Princess Alice, gave him one of her tiaras, a piece she had received as a wedding present nearly half a century earlier, so that it could be dismantled. Several of those diamonds could then be used to make Elizabeth’s ring.
