    It is Indian in style, could it be a gift from the Indian princes or a former Viceroy to either princess Helena or Marie-Louise?

    : Princess Marie Louise maybe was not a very
    : prominent royal, she was very connected of
    : course. Her mother was a Princess of the
    : United Kingdom, her uncle Edward VII was
    : King of the United Kingdom, her cousin
    : George V was King of the United Kingdom, the
    : German Emperor Wilhelm II was her cousin,
    : etc. In these days she would have been
    : considered 'very royal' compared with
    : today's royal pedigrees.

    : I think the answer for the surprisingly rich
    : collection of jewels lies in Marie Louise's
    : many royal connections.
