Thank you very much for this picture new to me! So the necklace was sold by the Baviera branch and the king bought it back to the main line. Wonderful!

: When, some years ago, I first saw Queen
: Sofia wearing this necklace I thought it was
: a new piece, as I found it very modern
: looking.
: So when I read the book by Ricardo Saenz de
: Medrano on the jewels of the Queens of Spain
: I was very surprised to find out that the
: necklace had been owned by Queen Maria
: Cristina, and King Juan Carlos had bought it
: back.
: I really like it, it has a timeles design,
: very simple and elegant, that has survived
: through generations. I hope the next
: generations of spanish royal ladies will
: wear it too.
