    Thank you Franck!
    Regarding the amethyst sautoir, I do not think that the necklace worn in your first picture is a match with the one worn by the Duchess of Cornwall now.
    In the second pic, I believe we're looking at two seperate pearl necklaces with two pendants attached to the lower rows to match the clasp of the upper two-strand-necklace, not an original pearl, ruby and diamond necklace.
