    Just a though on N of H Archived Message

    Just a thought: since I was thinking on the 1954-2002 dissapearance of the necklace, I asume that this might be because, in its origin it was a wedding gift given to a princess, who stop wearing it as a queen. Then it came back when the Golden Jubilee. And since HM is v ery elocuent with the wearing of their jewels, is quite significative to have lend this particular necklace to a princess, as a signal of aproval to her and her behaviour as a such. And with a kind of jewel directly connected with the Queen herself, her marriage, and not with any other member as Qm or P. Diana. Just an hypothesis

    : their triumphal returns to the rotation --
    : and the debut of the complete stomacher in
    : the present reign.
