John R, are you familiar with the book Parels en Parelmoer by René Brus and H.E.Coomans ? There's some interesting info (pages 49/50) about Amalia van Solms' specal gift (from Queen Anne of France/Cardinal Mazarin) back in 1644 which eventually found its way to Prussia and which seems to have ended up with Der Kaiser who sold 6 precious pearl colliers in 1923 to A. de Sonderheimer (.....) ???
