Double Lecture & Afternoon Tea | Cartier Jewels with Adrian Dickens

Wednesday 25 Nov 2026, 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM

Cartier Jewels belonging to Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

Since the death of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on 8 September 2022, her Cartier jewels continue to feature prominently in the jewel box of the British Royal Family. Many pieces are embued with history and stories, and all possess the recognisable characteristics of the iconic “Maison Cartier”.

Cartier: Jewels worn by the rich and famous

Whether gifted by a betrothed, spouse or lover, or commissioned by the wearer, the pieces featured in this talk are unique. From the style of the Duchess of Windsor, the extravagance of Barbara Hutton, and the over-the-top creations belonging to Maria Felix, this talk discusses many of the pieces seen adorning the rich and famous.

Your ticket includes two lectures by special guest Adrian Dickens, and an afternoon tea of petit fours and tea or Market Lane coffee, served on our Wedgwood fine bone china, and time to browse our exclusive range of books, gifts, and homewares at TJC Emporium.

This event is presented on-site at The Johnston Collection. Please see your ticket for details. NOTE: Tickets for this event do not include access to our house museum, Fairhall. Guided tours of the current exhibition can be booked separately.

This event is supported by The Colin Holden Charitable Trust.
