Thank you Christian for sharing this photo here from your book, which I am patiently waiting for it to be published in English 
It is amazing how the jewel size is exaggerated, especially flower corsage/stomacher....

: I used the portrait in my book, and the
: informations I got from The Royal collection
: said that Queen Louise is wearing an emerald
: and diamond tiara which must refer to the
: one on the Danish crown jewels. The painting
: is dated 1964 the same year that the Queen
: got the crown jewels brought to her at
: Amalienborg from Rosenborg so I think the
: necklace and earrings must be the well-known
: diamond demi-parure, while the brooch must
: be the grand bouquet - both from the crown
: jewels. So August Schiøtt's is actually the
: earliest knwn portrait of QL showing her
: with the crown jewels.
