The Queen is wearing King Charles III’s Family Order for the first time at this evening’s state banquet. The portrait by Elizabeth Meek - painted in oil on polymin - is based on a Hugo Burnand photograph taken in 2023. It is mounted in a diamond-set white and yellow gold frame.
Is that the Belgian Sapphire Tiara?

No order exchange between The Queen and The Empress apparently. As I feared, The King continues to do this practice of not giving consorts any order.
Replying to @RE_DailyMail
The traditional exchange of gifts is conducted in private but details here - including two very special honours for The King and Emperor.

QEII’s ruby/diamond tiara was made in the 1970s from gems originating from the Nizam of Hyderabad tiara, given to her as wedding gift. It matched her red velvet evening dress by Fiona Clare, worn with QEII’s ruby and diamond necklace and matching earrings from her own collection

Queen Camilla and the Princess of Wales debuted two spectacular - and rarely seen - tiaras for the first time at tonight’s state banquet.
Camilla unearthed Queen Elizabeth’s ruby and diamond Burmese tiara, while Catherine sported the late Queen Mother’s Strathmore Rose tiara.

What a fabulous touch amid the wealth of gifts given to the President of the Republic of Korea and his wife today….Queen Camilla gave the First Lady a pashmina embroidered with the names of her dogs (the First Lady’s that is) by The Royal School of Needlework 🎁

The Kitchens have been busy putting finishing touches to dishes that will be served at tonight’s State Banquet.
These centre pieces, crafted out of sugar, represent the Hibiscus Syriacus, the national flower of the Republic of Korea, and will be presented alongside petit fours.
They managed to commission 6 diamond brooches for Queen’s Companions in time for the Coronation.
14 months has passed since Accession yet there is still no sign of new Royal Family Order. Is it really going to happen though, at some point? Another decline if it’s been abolished.
You can also see two Queen’s Companions. Lady Sarah Keswick (old friend) in 💜 and Lady Brooke (daughter of Lady Susan Hussey and wife of Sir Francis Brooke) in 💙.
All wearing diamond brooches in the shape of Queen Camilla’s cypher.
