Yoy're welcome, Tamara. Regarding the large diamond necklace we know nothing about it after the King's wedding, right? Queen Maria was such a dramatic and theatrical personage. Her jewel collection wasn't the most harmonic or beautiful IMO, though it had the most massive pieces. --Previous Message-- : thank you Pedro.. I happen to own Vincent : Meylan's "Queens' Jewels" and : there is a full page black and white photo : of that amazing sautoir in addition to : Queen Maria's photo with the wearing this : amazing piece. : : : --Previous Message-- : That's what it looks like, Tamara. : : Let me add a gorgeous photo of the original : necklace and pendant. : : : --Previous Message-- : Thanks Maridje.... : : I wonder why they never mentioned Queen : Frederika?? : : : : so what do we know so far... : : 1.
