A few years ago someone posted a photo from an auction catalog showing a Fabergé necklace that appeared to match the one worn in Martina's post (although shortened) which contained Ceylon sapphires. I didn't save the pic so if anyone can repost it, I would appreciate it!
But of course even though it appeared to be the same necklace, that doesn't mean that it was the same one worn by Princess Alice. And we've seen Princess Sibylla wearing an aquamarine tiara with a sapphire necklace, so that doesn't prove that Princess Alice's tiara is sapphire. However, no one on this board has ever been able to prove that Princess Alice's stones were aquamarines. It has always been assumed due to their appearance in black-and-white photos.
