Other jewelry includes earrings, necklaces, and a bracelet. She holds a cord with tassels in her right hand. Her left hand rests on a table with elaborate carved legs. A second crown and other regalia are on the table. The base of a column and a stone balustrade are immediately behind the woman. In the background, a flag flies from a castle, probably Windsor Castle, on a distant hilltop.
