anytime...Boris please remind me the event where she wore this turquoise necklace? I will try to search for it...there must be a better photo somewhere.
Maybe is we track down which magazines covered that event, we'll have a better chance on getting closeup of that necklace?

: Thanks a lot Tamara, I was just wondering if I
: should go down the looong and winding road
: of searching for a good pic of this 2nd set!
: I wish there was a HQ pic of the grand
: turquoise set, or at least a clear close up
: in artificial light - that would tell us
: more.
: Having the clearest pics of it in dull
: daylight (in the dress with the turquoise
: pattern, outside of Gripsholm Castle at the
: royal couple's silver wedding 2001) is not
: so helpful IMHO...

: I think this set (photo below) of turquoise

: That's a very good question.
: As this grand demi-parure has not been worn
: by any other of the present Bernadotte
: ladies (like CP Margaret's laurel leaf
: tiara, which is unquestionably Lilian's
: private property), it should be most likely
: in her personal possession.
: But its provenance is something of a
: mystery. There is no record of a previous
: Swedish Royal wearing the set, and another
: odd fact is that Lilian only started to wear
: it in public in the second half of the
: 1990s.
: A certain very knowledgeable poster here
: once hinted at the possibility that the
: turquoises might have a royal provenance
: indeed and found their way back to the main
: Bernadotte family branch.
: Another good view of earrings, necklace and
: ring:

: Are the turquoise jewellery worn by Princess
