Stunning Sapphires. I love Sapphire (demi) parures, we don't see them that often yet they are so regal. I prefer the longer necklace, without the pendant though. Are the pendant and earrings part of the original parure, they seem to have different settings. --Previous Message-- : it is interesting how versatile this set : is...you can remove the diamonds in between : sapphires, which Queen Margrethe has been : doing quite often...you can re-arrange the : sapphires...for instance, the central : element is larger in one picture than the : other (see below pictures). : : there were also 2 sapphires converted into : hair pins...I just don't know if that was a : permanent change, which we saw ( Marianne if : you can kindly repost the picture from : Princess Nathali'e wedding) at the Berleburg : wedding. : : The necklace has been shortened and in my : opinion it looks much better as Queen : Margrethe wore it when she was : younger...lower and more grand looking. : : : : : : : : :
