Diamond jewelry and sparkling tiaras are a major facet of Queen Elizabeth II's wardrobe. And as it turns out, one of her pieces was even designed by Prince Philip.

On Wednesday, the royal family shared in a tweet that the late Duke of Edinburgh "always had an interest in design." He not only oversaw the design and construction of the Royal Yacht Britannia, according to the royal family, but he also created a bracelet for his wife as a wedding present.

The diamond cuff featured stones from a tiara owned by his mother, according to the tweet.

The Queen has worn the cuff to various royal events and in some portrait images.

In more recent years, the accessory has seemingly been passed over to Kate Middleton. She wore the bracelet on her left wrist during her first state banquet in October 2015.

As previously reported by Popsugar, she paired the cuff with diamond drop earrings and the Lotus Flower tiara at the time.

Prince Philip died at the age of 99 on Friday. In a statement obtained by Insider, Buckingham Palace said he "passed away peacefully" at Windsor Castle.

As Insider's Mikhaila Friel reported at the time, the duke had previously been hospitalized at King Edward VII's Hospital in London for four weeks earlier this year.
