    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.
