: No Josefine, actually I was asking Claes if he
: took the possibility into account when
: searching for photos of Sibylla wearing this
: necklace that she might have worn only the
: one-row version.
:
: Such a photo could be difficult to identify,
: especially if the distinctive clasp was worn
: in the back.

: with this respons i am guessing you have

: the necklace on sibylla, I am on a photo
: hunt, but cant figure out what photo you are
: refering to any clue?

: Claes, you say you have tried to identify
: the
: same two strand necklace on Princess
: Sibylla, but have you tried to identify the
: same one strand necklace?
:
: In the beginning (also for Victoria's
: christening), Queen Silvia wore the necklace
: as one long strand, and only later on as a
: two strand necklace.
:
: It remains convertible, as the pearls were
: worn in the two-strand version at Prince
: Carl Philip's christening but again as one
: strand at Earl Mountbatten's funeral a few
: days later back in 1979.
:
: IMHO very beautiful pic from the photo
: session for Victoria's 1977 christening:

: Even you refer to Boris, I would like to say
: it was according Elisabeth Tarras Wahlberg
: who told that the two strand pearl necklace
: has belonged to Princess Sibylla. I have
: checked all photos I have of Princess
: Sibylla and I can´t see that they have
: wearing same two strand necklace. I have
: seen one photo of Princess Sibylla wearing a
: two strand pearl necklace but the pearls
: looks smaller.
:
: According a magazine from the time of
: Princess Victoria´s christening in 1977 it
: was a gift to Queen Silvia at the time of
: christening. But it might have belonged to
: Princess Sibylla.

: From what I remember (Boris can correct
: me)this pearl necklace came from Princess
: Sybilla...
:
: what always struck me was how white those
: pearls were and they didn't really have much
: luster like every pearl should have...which
: tells me, they might be quite old...
:
:
: just compare luster on the brooch that Queen
: Silvia is wearing in contrast to the
: necklace...they almost look fake...but they
: are not
