    Article says a Dogwood design Necklace of platinum diamonds and emeralds.
    Designed by Myra Hawes White, it was a 1951 gift from British Columbia. The Duke received similar cufflinks. The article says that the then princess was so delighted that Philip said why not wear it now. So she took her pearls off, and wore the new necklace in the elevator to her suite.
