The fleur de lis with diamonds and sapphires is made in the second half of the 19 century for CP Louise (Lovisa) and she put it into the "løsørefideikommis" which is the family collection that can not be sold ore become smaller, only bigger. Queen Ingrid wore it often as well as her 3 girls. Now it's worn frequently by HM QM2. My info is from Bjarnes book about the royal Danish jewels p. 182.
