--Previous Message-- : Maybe the matching necklace left the main line : at some point and was subsequently auctioned : off? I doubt that it is one of the rivières : as they are not "matching" in : design. (Though I love rivières as they are : so versatile.) ===================================================== In the post linked to above, Mr. Isaksen says that according to Göran Alm the parure was left to the royal jewellery foundation. I think it would be highly unlikely that Queen Silvia would have a grand diamond necklace at her disposal and not have worn it after all these years, so the necklace must be the one shown in the photo provided by Boris. A large ornate necklace might be too much with that huge tiara. I really like the look of a diamond rivière or two (or seven ) on a lady.
