Thanks a lot, Torkel! As Field herself says 'shortened and redesigned since 1923', IMHO this is quite obviously the original version of the same necklace as worn by The Duchess of Cornwall now.
--Previous Message-- : I´m not quite certain, but I believe the : Duchess of Cornwall is actually wearing a : new version of the necklace gifted in 1923. : There are many similarities. The one thing : that does not fit is the heart-shaped : amethyst. Camilla´s version looks bigger, : and the diamond setting more modern. : : : Described by Fields: : : The necklace was a wedding gift from Queen : Alexandra to Queen Elizabeth the Queen : Mother in 1923 and was given to the Queen : after her marriage. Shortened and redesigned : since 1923, the necklace now consists of : three rows of small pearls interspersed with : eight large oval amethysts, each surrounded : by brilliant-cut diamonds. Hanging from the : front largest cluster is a heart-shaped : amethyst pendant surrounded by brilliants, : and from the four side clusters hang oval : amethyst drops surrounded by brilliants. : : Picture from The Times in 1923: : : : --Previous Message-- : Tonight for the new James Bond's Royal : Premiere. : : : : : : : : : :
