The Women of Auckland gifted the brooch to the queen during her first tour of New Zealand in 1953-54. The money was generated through fundraising, and the brooch was presented on Christmas Day to the new monarch, who went on to wear it before the trip was out. The queen has worn it many times since, and Kate sported it twice last year on her tour of New Zealand. The first time was for her arrival into the country on a red Catherine Walker coat, and the second time was on a teal Emilia Wickstead dress to a Palm Sunday church service in Dunedin.
