The marquise of Chaponay is a "feminine-line" descendant of Stephanie GD of Baden and so the necklace passed on to her, the mother having bequeathed it to her daughter in each generation. And the marquise is a first cousin of King Leopold father of GD Josephine Charlotte. There is the connection but not by the last GD of Baden. --Previous Message-- : Could the last grand duchess of Baden have : left her turquoises to her niece, the grand : duchess of Luxembourg? She left other : jewels thus. And that's a much closer : family relationship than the one between the : marquise of Chaponay and the GD Josephine. :
