Queen Anne Marie also has some turquoise jewels, at least one pair of earrings, some small brooches, rings and at least one bracelet. She wore those at a Luxembourg royal wedding in the early 1980's and at her youngest child Ps Philipos christening. I never saw her wear any turquoise necklace so I don't know if the jewels make a more complete set, nor if they are part of the greek turquoise ones from Queen Sophie. Another possibility is that Queen Anne Marie's turquoises came from her swedish or danish inheritance...
